Introduction to Regenerative Ranching Crash Course

This workshop is designed to help answer the hard questions we face when it comes to the interface between agriculture, water use, land use, and how to improve the natural resources we all rely on for generational success.

This class is geared towards the intersection of livestock producers looking for improved profitability/productivity, state/federal land managers and technicians, environmental advocates, and concerned citizens about soil health and food quality. We all need each other to assist in the regeneration of our landscapes.

Learning Outcomes:

• You will come away from this workshop knowing how to identify what a functioning landscape looks like by knowing how to identify functional and nonfunctional ecosystem processes.
• Learn the tools of ecosystem management. Particularly, employing the help of living organisms as the ultimate tool to improve forage yields, catch more water in your soils, and improve overall biodiversity over a landscape.
• Decision making: Cut through the noise. You will learn an innovative way to check if the decisions you wish to make fit into your specific situation. There are a million solutions to any problem, but your unique context will determine what is best for you. Only you can determine your silver bullet.
• Create your Holistic Context. This is an innovative approach, pioneered by Allan Savory, designed to help families, businesses, and organizations to identify what they want the quality of their lives to be. Too often we go about our lives not knowing what we value the most and this exercise is critical to have lasting impact on our land, ranches, and natural resources.

This is the introductory course into Holistic Management. We highly recommend also enrolling in our Comprehensive 3 Day In-person course scheduled for September 17th-19th to implement the Holistic Planned Grazing Procedure, Ecological Monitoring Procedure, and Holistic Financial Planning Procedure.

This course has been made possible in part by Working Lands. Working Lands Conservation (WLC) bridges the gap between science and land stewardship to enhance the sustainability of working lands. Through collaboration, research, and outreach, we empower land managers and rural communities with science-based solutions that benefit both people and ecosystems. Our approach is rooted in relationships, ensuring durable, lasting impacts on the land.
