Checked November 6, 2026
Annual report required every year; no posted date
Navarro CAD requires wildlife landowners to prove their management practices every year and submit an annual update of their wildlife management plan; the guidelines don't give a due date, so call the district. Minimum is 12.5 acres (10 acres in a wildlife co-op).

What to keep for Navarro County
Whether or not Navarro County asks for a report this year, keep dated proof that you carried out at least three of the seven wildlife management practices in your plan:
- A log of each activity: the date, what you did, where and how much
- Dated photos of the work (feeders, water, brush piles, cleared brush)
- Receipts and invoices for feed, seed, materials and contractors
- Census sheets with dates, routes and numbers seen

Ag valuation in Navarro County
Running cattle, cutting hay or farming instead of managing for wildlife? These are the Navarro Central Appraisal District’s published degree-of-intensity standards for the 1-d-1 agricultural valuation.
Navarro CAD does not set one minimum acreage for grazing; it judges each tract on stocking rate. Its standards were approved by the district's Ag Advisory Board on March 27, 2025, and the district says an updated version is coming.
| Improved pasture | 5–7 acres per animal unit |
|---|---|
| Native pasture | 7–12 acres per animal unit |
| Hay | Hay land is treated as improved pasture: 1–2 round bales or 20–40 square bales per acre per cutting, 1–2 cuttings a year. Hay is typically not produced on tracts under 5 acres. |
| Crops and orchards | Corn, milo, wheat, cotton and oats: 20 acres minimum. Orchards: irrigated peaches 5 acres; dry-land peaches and pecans 10 acres; at least 95% of the property planted to typical spacing. |
| Beekeeping | Beekeeping: 5–20 acres. 6 hives on 5 acres, then one more hive for each 2.5 acres (12 hives at 20 acres). |
| History and filing | Ag use for 5 of the past 7 years is required. |

An animal unit is one cow (or cow-calf pair); a horse counts as one, and about five goats or sheep make one, though some districts count them differently. See what Texas requires for ag valuation. Your appraisal district has the final say, so call them if anything here doesn’t match your letter.
