Nebraska Wildlife Habitat Incentives Program (WHIP)

The Wildlife Habitat Incentives Program (WHIP) is a voluntary program that encourages creation of high quality wildlife habitats that support wildlife populations of National, State, Tribal, and local significance.  Through WHIP, the Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) provides technical and financial assistance to landowners and others to develop upland, wetland, riparian, and aquatic habitat areas on their property.  USDA and program participants enter into a cost-share agreement for wildlife habitat development.  This agreement generally lasts a minimum of 5 years from the date that the contract is signed.

For additional information visit the National NRCS WHIP website.
