Prescribed Overgrazing:

When Rangeland Health and Habitat Objectives Collide
John and Jocelyn Haskell, Diamond J Resource Management

Excerpt from Program:
"Currently, John and Jocelyn Haskell are working on two projects that they feel embody both the history and the future of rangeland management and restoration: Hardware Ranch and the Rich County Coordinated Resource Management (CRM). At Hardware they are implementing a prescribed grazing program designed to: 1) Restore critical Mule Deer and Sage Grouse winter range, 2) Reduce noxious weeds and 3) Improve the integrity of riparian corridors. With the Rich County CRM, they work with a number of partners to plan, fund and implement range improvement projects on private, state and federal lands within the county. They will present an overview of these projects within the context of restoration work in the West, especially Utah and look at the limitations to many current practices and identify what they feel to be the most promising prospects for the future."
