Summary of Hunters Helping Farmers Program: 

Website: http://georgiawildlife.com/HHF

Hunters Helping Farmers is a service provided by the Division of Fish & Wildlife that makes lists of hunters (willing to harvest antlerless deer) available to landowners that have difficulty finding hunters to hunt on their property. While the list is available, signing up does not guarantee placement with a landowner.

How its similar to our business model:

• focus is on connecting farmers with hunters

How its different to our business model:

• different driving factor behind the reason they do it
• focus on helping out farmers that need game removed from their land
• website is more faqs than much registration
• hard to find information

What other points does it provide for us to think about:

• whether or not to have 'off seasons' and close applications for a period when there is less hunting / small game available
• look up the relevant law for who is required to ensure there is a firearms license - is it the landowners responsibility?

Website Page Details:

• more of a general questions faqs page
• they close annual registration - maybe this is seasonal?


• "The application period for the 2016 Hunters Helping Farmers Program is now closed."
• This initiative is a partnership effort between the Georgia Department of Agriculture and the Georgia Department of Natural Resources in order to help landowners manage the damaging impact of feral hogs.
• Hunters Helping Farmers is a new private lands initiative opportunity that seeks to match up hog hunters in the same county with farmers that need assistance with hog removal.
• This is a free service. However, hunting feral hogs requires a valid hunting license. Be sure that you have a current hunting license.

Useful/Relevant FAQs:

Do I need any special equipment to hunt hogs? For example, can traps or other methods be used or only firearms?

Although there are no restrictions on what weapon can be used to hunt hogs on private land, this question should be answered by the farmer/landowner. He or she may have specific instructions.
