Indiana Game Bird Partnership Program

Indiana DNR and local conservation groups such as Pheasants Forever/Quail Forever or the National Wild Turkey Federation share the cost of game-bird habitat on private land. DNR pays up to 50% of eligible costs, up to $330 per acre, and the sponsoring group adds funds, materials or labor.

• Landowners developing habitat for bobwhite, pheasant, woodcock, mourning dove, ruffed grouse or wild turkey.

• A partner not-for-profit conservation organization must sponsor the project.

• Not available on any licensed or commercial hunting preserve.

Up to 50% cost-share, max $330/acre; annual caps apply; improvements maintained at least three years.

Published amounts: DFW may contribute up to 50% of the reimbursable costs, not to exceed $330 per acre. The sponsoring partnership organization must also contribute funds, materials, or labor. Annual cap limits apply to financial agreements.

Contact your district wildlife biologist or a local Pheasants Forever/Quail Forever or NWTF chapter.
