Ep. 360 - Western U.S. Remains Gripped by Drought
Season 6
Published 3 years, 8 months ago
Description
Dr. Mark Petrie, DU’s director of conservation planning for the Western Region, provides a quick update on drought conditions in the western U.S. for April 2022. With intensifying drought, we should expect limited local duck production, significant declines in planted rice, reduced wetland management, and concerning carry-over effects into fall and winter. Mark also provides insights on what this means for waterfowl and how DU is responding.
