Wildlife Habitat Incentives Program
The Wildlife Habitat Incentives Program (WHIP) is a voluntary program that
provides technical and financial assistance to landowners who want to improve
fish and wildlife habitat or restore natural ecosystems on their land. The
USDA-NRCS will pay up to 75 percent of the cost of establishing and maintaining
conservation practices that are necessary for enhancing/improving wildlife
habitat and restoring natural ecosystems. Agreements are from 5 to 10 years in
duration. Landowners may sign up for this program at any time through the
local NRCS office.
