Description
James Callicut, Mississippi State University Extension Waterfowl and Game Bird Specialist, called into the Crop Doctors’ Podcast studio in Stoneville to explore how habitat management decisions shape success before and after opening day. James shares insights from his research tracking mallards and pintails across Mississippi, discusses key strategies for preparing wetlands and agricultural fields in the weeks leading up to the season, and explains how to adapt management practices as conditions shift later in the winter. Whether you’re a waterfowl hunter, land manager, or conservation-minded outdoorsman, this conversation dives deep into the science and strategy behind supporting ducks throughout the migration.
