What you'll learn by attending the field day on the Luark Ranch:
  • Wondering if virtual fencing really works? Come see how virtual fencing is being used to improve ranch infrastructure which facilitates the implementation of prescribed grazing management.
  • Struggling with woody plant growth that reduces palatable forage production? Observe sage grouse management and pinyon-jumper control on BLM grazing allotment.
  • Learn how forest and rangeland health can be improved, which leads to active management that produces increased resilience of forest and improved understory vegetation.
  • See how the Luark Ranch is pursuing direct marketing of their beef by looking into local meat processing with neighbors creating a more complete and efficient ranching operation.
  • Have you heard of Saving Tomorrow's Agriculture Resources? Join us to learn about the S.T.A.R. evaluation tool that focuses on building healthy soil for our farmers and ranchers to make our lands more resilient, efficient, and profitable.
