Comparison of Ecological Indicators in Southern Idaho

Nearly 26 of the 53 million acres of land in Idaho classify as rangeland. The Idaho Bureau of Land Management administers 11.5 million acres for livestock grazing for over 1600 livestock producers through the 10 year permitting process.

The ecological indicators of southern Idaho project will answer the question, how do Bureau of Land Management specialists’ and ranchers’ identified indicators and applied knowledge systems compare on management and ecological timelines?
