Rangeland Resources Program
Rangelands and grasslands reflect a growing interest for the ecosystem goods and services that these lands provide, the relationship of humans to these landscapes, and the efforts required to keep these lands sustainable. Interest exists to maintain a healthy and biodiverse ecosystem that provides water availability, clean air, and wildlife populations while supporting agriculture, energy and minerals production. The RRP focuses on building relationships among diverse groups to share perspectives and ideas that foster healthy, sustainable rangelands.

70% of Montana (68,000,000 acres)
is rangeland .

Rangelands provide habitat for wildlife, forage for livestock, and a host of ecosystem goods and services for the state.

Rangelands provide watershed services worth $14/acre, including groundwater filtration and aquifer recharge
