Putting Nature to Work Series: Prescribed Grazing for Ecological and Wildfire Resilience

About this webinar

Learn about new legislation recently introduced by Senator Monique Limón that will enhance wildfire mitigation efforts by expanding statewide prescribed grazing efforts. Hear from local rangeland contractors, conservationists, and policymakers about the need to scale this important ecological and fire resilience tool – and how Senate Bill 675 will ensure that prescribed grazing is better integrated into existing statewide wildfire resilience programs and strategies. Co-presented with Cuyama Lamb LLC, the California Climate & Agriculture Network (CalCAN), Channel Islands Restoration, and the Office of Senator Monique Limón.
