Landowners can enroll in OFW program until June 15
By Nebraska Game and Parks Commission
Private landowners have until June 15 to enroll their land in the Open Fields and Waters (OFW) Program.
Through OFW, landowners can earn additional income for allowing walk-in hunting, trapping and/or fishing access on their properties.
John Laux, Upland Habitat and Access Coordinator for Game and Parks, said OFW is a win-win for both private landowners and hunters.
“Participating landowners benefit from the extra income and our hunters and anglers (who help fund the program) have more places to go,” he said.
Private landowners interested in enrolling in OFW should contact their nearest Game and Parks district office: Lincoln at (402)471-0641); Norfolk (402)370-3374; Alliance (308)763-2940; and North Platte (308) 535-8025.
