So What is Rangeland Management
The careful use and stewardship of rangelands to meet the needs of those who live on and care about these lands
(Rangelands an Introduction to Wild Open Spaces)In Simpler Terms: The use and stewardship of rangeland resources to meet GOALS & DESIRES of humansOur interpretations of “use and stewardship” are different because we have different ideas of goals and desires. Slide6
Our Goals & Desires Are all Different
Current use or state of our Rangelands
Our
Opinions (Goals & Desires)
Future of our Rangelands
Your Goals & Desires really depend on your World
View which effects the future of our RangelandsSlide7
So what is your world view?
1)Emphasize protecting large areas of land (from mining, timber, grazing and development)for current & future generations to enjoy
3)Protect our resources
from degradation but we can still benefit from their resources & maintain multiple uses for future generation 2)Rangelands primary use is for saleable products. Our goal is to maximize economical output. This sometimes looks like making ends meet.

Creating the process for the future
Because Rangeland’s future has so many factors
to consider, we cannot always be objective because our goals & desire different. Rangeland Management requires a more holistic approach.Multiple usesWorld viewsPersonal Objectives
Measuring and Monitoring Rangelands(i.e. Data Collection)Slide11
Holistic
By Definition - characterized by comprehension of the parts of something as intimately interconnected and explicable only by reference to the whole.
Rangeland Management is Interconnected
