St. Paul, MN -(AmmoLand.com)- Pheasants Forever and its conservation partners are hosting a series of 13 educational workshops throughout Nebraska to provide prescribed fire training for landowners, land managers, resource professionals, volunteer fire departments, and others interested in the safe and effective use of this underutilized land management tool.

Six basic workshops will be held to provide a solid foundation on the fundamentals of planning and conducting a prescribed fire. These workshops are great for those with little to no experience and while serving as a refresher to more experienced fire practitioners. The remaining seven workshops are more advanced and will take an in-depth look at specific aspects of planning or implementing a prescribed fire.

Fire is a natural part of both forest and grassland ecology, and controlled fire can be a tool for foresters and resource professionals to safely reduce excess amounts of brush, shrubs, and trees, encourage the new growth of native vegetation, and maintain the many plant and animal species whose habitats depend on periodic fire.
