Pheasants Forever and Quail Forever are helping to form local Prescribed Burn Associations (PBA) across the state of Nebraska. A local PBA is not a group that hires out to conduct burns on a property, it is best described as "neighbors helping neighbors conduct prescribed burns".  A local PBA helps find ways of overcoming the three biggest limitations to conducting prescribed burns in the state:

  • Having enough man-power to conduct a proper prescribed burn.
  • Having access to prescribed burn equipment.
  • Knowing how to conduct a proper prescribed burn.

When a group of interested people come together that would like to know more about prescribed burning, the Pheasants Forever staff will set up a meeting with the local group and explain to them the resources that PF and QF can bring to help form a PBA, provide prescribed burn equipment for them to use, provide burn training and support them with an infrastructure of guidance and additional resources. 

Contact Pheasants Forever at 308-754-5339 or pberthelsen@pheasantsforever.org about starting a prescribed burn association in your area.
