“In Briscoe County, hunting and land leasing are economically important to the county,” said Mason Carter, AgriLife Extension agriculture and natural resources agent in Briscoe County. “It is good for landowners and lessors to keep up with laws and regulations with the hunting season coming up and a new mule deer regulation coming in to effect.”

One general Texas Department of Agriculture continuing education unit will be provided.

The program will include:

• Hunting and Land Leasing, Tiffany Dowell Lashmet, Texas A&M AgriLife Extension Service agricultural law specialist, Amarillo.
