(Wisconsin Ag Connection) -Conservation-minded people throughout Wisconsin are encouraged to enroll in the Deer Management Assistance Program to improve wildlife habitat on property they own or hunt.The DMAP provides resources for wildlife habitat management, which complements land use activities like agriculture and timber management on properties of any size. Neighboring landowners with properties within one-half mile of each other are encouraged to enroll as a group cooperative. Landowners in a group cooperative with a combined acreage of 160 acres or more receive a site visit and management plan.
Group cooperatives also provide an opportunity to monitor local wildlife populations and share costs and equipment on habitat projects to benefit deer and other wildlife over a greater area. For more information regarding DMAP and to apply, go to dnr.wi.gov and search keyword "DMAP."
