EXHIBIT B 2027-2030.pdf

This exhibit details a farming operations schedule for the Jasper-Pulaski Fish & Wildlife Area covering a four-year period from 2027 through 2030. The document specifies crop assignments across 16 distinct refuge fields and three designated areas, with detailed acreage allocations and planting schedules for corn, beans, and warm season grass. The total leased acreage spans 332 acres in 2027, declining to 196 acres in 2028, then expanding to 314 acres in 2029, and contracting to 184 acres in 2030. Specific field requirements include the mandatory harvest of corn in Refuge Fields J and K by October 15th, and the retention of standing refuge corridors ranging from 4 to 24 rows depending on the field location.

Special management provisions apply to certain fields, including Refuge Field L, which encompasses 170 acres and involves controlled water management on bean acreage estimated at approximately 50 acres during 2028 and 2030. Additionally, Refuge Field Area 8 Southwest incorporates warm season grass cultivation requirements as detailed in the contract's supporting specifications. These crop rotation and field management specifications establish the operational framework for the wildlife area's farming unit during the specified four-year contract term.
