What the Blackland Prairie region means for your plan
Once-vast tallgrass prairie, now mostly farmland. Prairie restoration, native reseeding and grassland-bird practices are what landowners here typically commit to.
Texas Parks & Wildlife publishes separate wildlife-planning guidelines per ecoregion, and appraisal districts hold plans to their region's standards.
