BLM Rawlins Field Office featured in “Grazing Management for the Future” film series
RAWLINS, Wyo. — The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) Wyoming Rawlins Field Office is featured in the newly released "Grazing Management for the Future" six-part film series, presented by the Intermountain West Joint Venture and BLM.
It focuses on BLM's Outcome-Based Grazing Authorizations (OBGAs) initiative and demonstrates how ranching families and federal land managers are working together to promote sustainable grazing practices that benefit both the environment and rural communities.
In the recent installment titled “First to Know” highlights PH Livestock’s innovative ranching practices and their partnership with the Rawlins Field Office. Cheryl Newberry, a rangeland management specialist with the BLM Wyoming Rawlins Field Office, plays a key role in this collaboration, ensuring that monitoring data is effectively integrated into grazing decisions to support long-term land stewardship.
“Having that data, whatever it is, is a benefit,” said Neils Hansen of PH Livestock. “I want to be the first to know that there’s a problem out there so I can address it.”
The entire film series offers a behind-the-scenes look at how the BLM's OBGA is improving grazing practices across the West while ensuring the health and productivity of public lands.
