Rangeland Trust webinar about grazing technology on public and private rangelands in California. The discussion included an explanation of the technology available, current research & ongoing studies, rancher experience with using collars and virtual fencing, and possible funding from NRCS in the future.
A 3 part video series: Explore the transformative potential of virtual fence technology in livestock management. Although it was first conceptualized in the 1980’s, virtual fencing has only recently become practical for working ranches, and its rapid evolution has significant implications for a broad range of land management and livestock production goals and values. This video series showcases early adopters from across the U.S., sharing their experiences and insights to help you effectively integrate virtual fencing into your operations.
Join us to learn about three real-world examples of how virtual fence (VF) has been used for rangeland and livestock management. We hope this webinar will empower you to effectively evaluate VF for sustainable rangeland management. NOTE: Due to technical difficulties, this webinar was not recorded but the presentations are available for review.
Join us to learn about the basics of virtual fence (VF) technology, including an overview of the components, potential applications, and compare the current and emerging VF vendors. We hope this webinar will empower you to effectively evaluate VF for sustainable rangeland management.
This one hour webinar is the first of a three part series on Virtual Fence.

Patrick Carr, Montana State University, and Erin Silva, University of Wisconsin, discuss Organic No Till systems and how they work…or don’t work. Get a better understanding of crop rotations, management, weed control tactics, equipment and necessary modifications, cover crops and termination, nutrient and pest management, and much more that go into No till Organic systems.
Continuous Living Cover 101, available from Green Lands Blue Waters, is a self paced, online course for agricultural, conservation, and technical assistance professionals. This training introduces the concept, describes five basic strategies (annuals + cover crops, agroforestry, perennial grains, perennial forage and grazing, and perennial biomass) to achieve CLC, and goes over economic and environmental benefits with on-farm examples. It also covers how to talk to farmers and support them in choosing and implementing CLC strategies.
