To avoid double counting acres where multiple programs contributed to the acquisition of a single parcel, the parcel acreage is only aggregated under the program that provided the majority of funding. For example, if the chart displays a dollar amount greater than $0, but also shows 0 acres, it is because the program was not the primary contributor for any parcels in that year.

The Kansas Department of Wildlife and Parks use three funds to purchase land. In recent years the Department utilizes the Wildlife Conservation Fund, which is revenue derived from lifetime hunting and fishing licenses. There is also a Stamp Fund which uses waterfowl stamp revenue and the Wildlife Fee Fund using annual hunting and fishing license sales. All of the funds have been used for land acquisition, wetlands development, and habitat protection.
