Reducing tree density in woods adjacent to fields. More sunlight will stimulate the understory to grow, providing more diverse cover from the field into the woods. Legal agreement between landowner and conservation organization that places permanent restrictions on what can be done on a property Uncropped areas around crop fields or unhayed areas around hay fields designed to provide nesting, brooding, and escape cover for many wildlife species.
