Under a new 2026 rule, Utah DWR may pay a private landowner to let big game or turkeys use their cleared and planted (cropped) land under a cooperative agreement of up to six years. The agreement replaces the regular depredation program for that property. DWR uses it where it helps big game or turkey populations below objective, adds forage and hunting opportunity, and reduces female harvest.



- Private landowner with cleared and planted land (cultivated crops for commercial gain, irrigated or harvested, or crop residue with forage value)
- Division must find the agreement benefits big game or turkey populations
- Property is excluded from depredation relief while enrolled

A lump sum of money for a specific purpose that does not need to be paid back.
