CRP land, vital for duck nesting, has plummeted from 1.7 million acres in 2018 to just a third of that. While some species like mallards and pintails are up, others including gadwall and diving ducks are down, with mallards still 13% below their long-term average. The Game and Fish Department will monitor the situation with a July brood survey before hunting opens in September. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
