The BLM OR/WA is offering this grant to fund an innovative research and demonstration project focused on the soil carbon cycle in Eastern Oregon. This initiative seeks to test and demonstrate how specific rangeland management practices and grazing intensities can enhance carbon sequestration rates in soils. A primary goal is to establish crucial baseline information on the soil carbon cycle within Eastern Oregon ecosystems, providing public and private land managers with a deeper understanding of effective management options. Furthermore, this grant is for the purpose of helping the BLM understand soil carbon science and carbon cycles in rangeland habitats, ultimately identifying potential adaptive management practices for federal lands.

| Description: | This project will conduct innovative research to test and demonstrate that specific rangeland management practices and grazing intensities create additional carbon sequestration rates in soils. This will establish baseline information on the soil carbon cycle in Eastern Oregon ecosystems, which will provide public and private land managers with a better understanding of management options. The BLM’s primary purpose for participating is to understand soil carbon science and carbon cycles in rangeland habitats and, where possible, identify potential adoptive management practices as we consider administering activities on Federal lands. |
