This workshop focuses on the distinctive aspects of USDA-NRCS grazing management planning through the Conservation Activity Plan (CAP) which is exclusive to USDA program participants. Learn about the required elements needed for developing a Grazing Management CAP with an emphasis on contingency planning for drought and wildfire. The Technical Service Provider (TSP) program opens up opportunities for Certified Professionals in Range Management and Certified Range Management Consultants to be hired by land managers who participate in conservation programs with the NRCS. Special financial assistance is now available to qualified ranchers and farmers for hiring TSPs to develop Grazing Management Conservation Activity Plans. The workshop is also open to SRM members who are not yet CPRMs or CRMCs, but plan to become certified within the year. Participants will receive one-on-one assistance in the TSP registration and certification process.
Oral presentation and poster titles, abstracts, and authors from the Society for Range Management (SRM) Annual Meetings and Tradeshows, from 2013 forward.
