Agriculture & Natural Resources

Initiatives

The Wyoming Cooperative Extension Service has two general initiative areas which encompass our work in Agriculture and Natural Resources. The initiative areas are:

  • Sustainable Management of Rangeland Resources (SMRR)
  • Profitable and Sustainable Agriculture Systems (PSAS).

Together, these initiatives encompass a tremendous diversity of program areas.

Additional Information

For additional information on the SMRR in the Mountain West Extension Area contact Glenn Owings. The PSAS educators are Hudson Hill and Bridger Feuz.

Knowledge Base

For the homeowner, we field questions in horticulture and home landscapes. For those involved in production agriculture, our emphasis is generally in forage-based beef cattle production systems, which includes:

  • Animal husbandry
  • Production technology
  • Management of animal and financial resources

We are also quite interested in natural resource management as it pertains to production agriculture. In that respect, we have a lot of expertise in range management and monitoring, and in natural resource issue work.
