Does Cattle Grazing Reduce Fire Fuels and Fire Danger? by Rosanne Hessmiller, last updated: Dec 12, 2023 08:42 PM
The last few fire seasons have clearly demonstrated that fires are coming more frequently and at sizes that challenge our ability to fight and/or control them. While grazing has been considered and even sometimes used as a fire prevention tool, the actual success and impact have not been clearly documented. This research is another step in learning how to successfully use grazing to reduce fire danger. We’ll be sharing more on this topic in future issues. January 11, 2021
