Range Science Management
Rangelands are grasslands, shrublands, woodlands, wetlands, and deserts that are grazed by domestic livestock or wild animals. In this project you will learn the importance of rangeland, how rangeland is managed and how to identify common rangeland plants. You will build a plant press and begin your rangeland plant collection.
