Helpful Tips for Implementation
 
Wildlife Habitat Evaluation Guide (WHEG)
Wildlife Habitat Evaluation Guides (WHEGs) are designed to provide the NRCS planner a way in which to essentially estimate the wildlife value of the land before and after practice implementation. The WHEGs utilize a numerical rating to compare the value of existing wildlife habitat with the value of wildlife habitat under various alternatives. These guides are typically only used when wildlife is the primary or secondary resource concern. Minimum planning criteria for a resource can be found in the Field Office Technical Guide.

Job Sheets
Practice "Job Sheets" can be found in the NRCS Field Office Technical Guide. If you are a landowner or land manager and have signed up for the Environmental Quality Incentives Program (EQIP), you should be able to find applicable documents in your folder. Most Job Sheets are also posted here for easy reference and download. Please refer to the requirements of your signed NRCS contract.

Conservation Practices
Conservation Practices may vary by state. However, the goal for quality quail habitat is to establish an early successional landscape. In thinned, frequently burned pines, light can reach the ground, provided quality groceries and cover for quail. In grassland landscapes, native grasses, forbs and legumes are essential.
