Work Plan for the Wildlife Component

Conservation Effects Assessment Project (CEAP) National Assessment

CEAP Grazing Lands Component

The CEAP Grazing Lands Component is intended to quantify the environmental effects of conservation practices used on pastureland and rangeland.  Whereas the Wildlife Component seeks to assess fish and wildlife effects on all habitat types in agricultural landscapes (some of these efforts will be on grazing lands), elements of the Grazing Lands Component are likely to directly or indirectly capture fish and wildlife habitat elements within the suite of ecological services influenced by conservation practices applied to pasture and rangeland.  The Grazing Lands Component is currently in the early stages of planning.  Close coordination between the Wildlife Component and Grazing Lands Component in the future will ensure that opportunities to quantify the effects of conservation practices on fish and wildlife in grazing land settings are explored and exploited.
