This Rangeland Research Program grant is dedicated to significantly improving U.S. rangeland resources and the crucial ecosystem services they inherently provide. The program aims to achieve this by supporting the development of new and emerging rangeland science methodologies, specifically focusing on the interrelationships between multiple disciplines. The primary purpose of this grant is to equip U.S. agricultural producers, rural landowners, and land managers with integrated science strategies. These strategies will enable them to make informed land management decisions, with a strong emphasis on enhancing the restoration and ensuring the long-term sustainable integrity of rangelands.
