yeah there are cost shares for burning but only a handful of contract burners and they aren't going to come burn a 40 acre plot when they can burn 200 acres that day
the prescribed burn trailer provided by the state is very cheap but doensnt get used very often because many people are terrified of doing the burning themselves

the dozer work was really cheap - MUCH less than what i pay at my real job - and didn't charge for travel time.
the cost/acre to burn depended on whether it was pasture or forested land. going off memory, forested land was +/- ten cents per acre and pasture was +/- 6 cents per acre. remember, that's coming off memory but it isn't far off.
i burned most of it myself with no probs.
wick, what's the data say about burning effects for woodcock?

I have not seen any data on it for Louisiana(winter grounds), but I have friends that hunt Kisatchie and they kill woodcock in burn areas.

If you burn frequently, it makes it much easier. That privet can grow quickly, and makes a pretty good fire.
In LA, you don't have to have any permits or file anything to burn. It's good to notify the local FD and Ag and Forestry beforehand, and take basic atmospheric measurements to prevent it going nuts. I've even had them help before. Fires can go from, "It's cool" to "Oh shite" within a couple of minutes

Massive Longleaf Pine Restoration Effort May Bode Well for Bobwhites

quote:
The longleaf pine ecosystem is said to be the most diverse ecosystem outside of the tropical rainforest. Before European settlement, it is estimated that longleaf pine covered 90 million acres across the southern landscape. Through modern logging practices, urban and suburban development, intensive forestry, agriculture practices and fire suppression, longleaf pine has been reduced in acreage by over 80 million acres. These are some of the same reasons are some why we have seen the demise of the Northern Bobwhite. In 2010, when the ALRI plan was written, there was approximately 3.4 million acres of longleaf pine. It is currently estimated that there are 4.1 million acres across the landscape. The 15-year goal of the plan is to have eight million acres of longleaf pine in 2025. The goal includes establishing approximately 190,000 acres per year, identifying and converting mixed stands that have a longleaf component to longleaf-dominated stands, and improving and maintaining the existing acreage, with an emphasis on increasing the acreage of prescribed fire accomplished annually

Coyote intrusion into the Southeast over the last 30-40 years hasn't helped, either.
