May 21, 2019 Playas, Conservation Delivery, Working Lands, Kansas

Moe Linden farms and runs cattle in Lane County, Kansas. He has a playa, about 40 acres in size, that he manages for wildlife habitat and hunting. “A playa is hard to farm. You might get one out of six years where you could grow a good crop, but the clay soil in the bottom is kind of prohibitive to farming it. So I think it’s a waste of time to farm them; might as well do something else. The playa attracts all sorts of wildlife — from upland wildlife to the deer and antelope. We get cranes, we get ducks, we get geese coming in there. Everything frequents that place.”
