This grant is for the purpose of advancing research and implementation strategies related to fire grazing practices within the Great Plains and Midwestern Grassland ecosystems. The initiative aims to explore the ecological impacts and benefits of controlled burning combined with livestock grazing, a traditional land management technique with modern applications. Key objectives include understanding the effects on plant diversity, soil health, carbon sequestration, and wildlife habitats. Furthermore, the grant will support projects focused on developing sustainable management models, enhancing rangeland productivity, and mitigating the risks of uncontrolled wildfires. By fostering collaboration among researchers, land managers, and stakeholders, this funding seeks to promote resilient grassland ecosystems and inform best practices for land stewardship in these vital regions.
