Seems we want our cake, and to eat it too! I read most of the article that started this topic a while ago, I think 2013? I had the great fortune to live in the heart of pheasant country in MN from 2003 until 2013. This I can tell you as true. The removal of most of the CRP acres there, (2010) caused an almost instant reduction in pheasants. $7.00 corn does not come around too often! A couple wet, cold springs reduced them yet more. I would imagine with all the increased ag activity the chems were a flowin! I go back and hunt every fall for a couple weeks. The last two years were OK. Not even in the same league as '04,5,6,7,8, 9. The death of a hundred cuts I think.
