Working lands are the cornerstone of the West, sustaining our livelihoods and economies while providing food, fiber, water, energy, wildlife habitat and recreational opportunities. Yet because working lands struggle to compete economically with other land uses, such as residential development, they continue to disappear. Increasing economic viability is essential to keeping our remaining lands intact, in family ownership and available to meet the many needs of people and wildlife.
