The BLM (NV) Range Management Project aims to improve range restoration by utilizing plant genetics. Through genetic sequencing and common garden experiments, the project seeks to identify optimal seed types for rangeland impacted by wildfires, grazing, and invasive species. By enhancing understanding of rangeland resources, this initiative aims to reduce the need for repetitive treatments, ultimately promoting healthier rangelands. Applications are open until Aug 16, 2018.

| Description: | The purpose of this program is for the BLM and its partner to work cooperative to enhance understanding of rangeland resources and ecological processes that are the basis of healthy rangeland by using next generation genetic sequencing and molecular analysis coupled with common garden experiments to better understand local seed adaption and identify the most successful seed types and the most cost effective treatments in order to reduce the need to repeat treatments of rangeland impacted by wild land fire, grazing, invasive species establishment, and drought. |
