About this event

  • 8 hours

Researchers whose work focuses on the Semi-Arid Grasslands Research Center, part of the Central Plains Experimental Range, a 15,500 acre short grass prairie with an average of 12 inches of annual precipitation, will introduce you to their work on virtual fencing and methane monitoring with Anna Shadbolt and Kim Stackhouse-Lawson, grazing principles for today's land managers led by Justin Derner and Anna Shadbolt, and there will be line-point-intercept training for plant biodiversity and associated plant identification led by a cadre of range professionals.
