In this episode of the Huntin’ Land podcast, host Joe Baya
interviews Ted Devos of Bach
and Devos to learn all about controlled burning or prescribed
burns. Ted explains that controlled burning is a way to manage
vegetation and ecosystems safely and sustainably, and shares some
of the different types of burns. Joe and Ted discuss the various
benefits of the practice, such as improved wildlife habitat,
reduced fire danger, and improved soil nutrient levels. The duo
also goes through the essential steps to consider before igniting a
controlled burn, from creating a burn plan to establishing
firebreaks and the critical equipment needed to ensure the fire is
safe and efficient. Ted also shares some helpful tips on becoming a
Certified Prescribed Fire Manager and protecting oneself during the
burn process. Finally, they dive into the potential financial costs
of a controlled burn and available options for funding, such as
cost sharing with the state forestry commission and organizations
like the Prescribed Burn Association.
