Rangelands and Grazing

The BLM’s Hassayampa Field Office recently installed an innovative way to manage livestock on public lands and improve rangeland health while reducing staffing and supply costs related to fences on grazing allotments.

BLM Colorado is participating in a pilot program to explore approaches for authorizing and managing grazing use. Operators adjust herd movement and size based on year-to-year changes in moisture and growing conditions.

Bureau of Land Management’s Monticello Field Office partnered with Montezuma Creek Elementary School to host its second annual Junior Ranger Day.

The Bureau of Land Management today announced the signing of the Finding of No Significant Impact of the environmental analysis for grazing authorization modifications, range improvements and stream restoration actions that would promote Lahontan Cutthroat Trout (LCT) habitat improvements.

A virtual fencing network is being used by producers on nearly 120,000 acres throughout 16 grazing allotments. Within that radius, an area can be “fenced in” for cattle wearing shock collars.
