Positive Livestock and Recreation Interactions

September 29, 2015 @ 9:30 am - 12:00 pm

Keeping Code and People at Home on the Range:

Positive Livestock and Recreation Interaction 

Sponsored by:

Central Coast Rangeland Coalition

With support from:

Midpeninsula Regional Open Space District

 

Description

As grazing moves increasingly beyond previously private open rangelands onto public lands – where recreation is expected to increase – encounters between livestock and recreationists are also likely to increase. California’s Central Coast is a hotspot for graziers and recreationists alike, and an important region in which to address the challenges and synergies of concurrent grazing and recreation. Conflicts between recreationists, environmentalists, and ranchers can be minimized and benefits maximized with appropriate policies and creative management. Novel approaches to public education and collaborative land management are critical to reducing negative livestock-recreation encounters and enhancing the many benefits that these land uses and ecosystem services provide.

Join members of the Central Coast Rangeland Coalition in a short workshop on improving interactions between recreation and livestock.  Kristina Wolf will present her literature review and extensive interview data, followed by discussion and interactive learning.  Participants will help by providing Ms. Wolf information that she will use to finalize her research project, which will be available later this year as a written report.

This is the CCRC’s 5th Rancher, Manager, and Scientist Forum on Rangeland Conservation, which was funded by the Midpeninsula Regional Open Space District.
