Tampico Ranch CE Wildlife Conservation Easement
- The Tampico Ranch property was the first irrigated farm on the Milk River and consists of 4,000 acres of cottonwood-dominated bottomland. Through the management plan, approximately 350 acres of agricultural fields will be seeded into dense nesting cover for pheasants, waterfowl, and other upland-nesting birds. In addition, a rest-rotation grazing plan provides high-quality winter habitat for wildlife by excluding cattle from fields planted for nesting cover. Haying is allowed on the ungrazed fields after July 15 when upland birds and waterfowl have finished nesting. Further, waterfowl habitat is maximized by maintaining water levels in three cut-off oxbows, located along the Milk River.
