Wildfire Resilience Through Grazing Research Act

The "Wildfire Resilience Through Grazing Research Act" proposes to amend the Food, Agriculture, Conservation, and Trade Act of 1990 by establishing a new initiative for ungulate grazing. This initiative would provide research and extension grants to land-grant institutions to develop and study grazing land management techniques for wildfire mitigation , fuel reduction , and post-fire recovery on public and private lands. The research will also focus on understanding the economic benefits and increasing social support for these activities, ensuring compatibility with environmental protection measures like preventing invasive species, soil erosion, and water degradation through methods such as rotational grazing and managed stocking rates . These techniques also aim to improve soil health. Additionally, the initiative supports disseminating information and educational materials to landowners, land managers, and livestock owners about these beneficial grazing practices.
