SUMMARY:Grassland CRP Explained -Leasing Your Land for Habitat and Conservation
DESCRIPTION:Leasing Your Land for Habitat and Conservation: Grassland CRP Explained  \nJoin the Western Landowners Alliance and national experts for a practical webinar on the Grassland Conservation Reserve Program (CRP)—a voluntary USDA program that helps landowners conserve rangelands while keeping them in production.  \nManaged by the USDA Farm Service Agency (FSA)\, Grassland CRP provides annual rental payments and cost-share assistance to producers who steward grasslands—including rangeland\, pastureland\, and critical wildlife habitat—while maintaining the ability to graze and hay. Producers receive income that supports long-term stewardship\, with contracts based on NRCS-approved grazing management plans. Cost-share is available for water infrastructure\, fencing\, and other practices that improve land health.  Rental rates are calculated at 75% of local cash rents\, ensuring meaningful economic support alongside conservation goals.  \nWhether you’re a ranch manager\, landowner\, or conservation partner\, this is your chance to get expert insights on how Grassland CRP can support working lands\, wildlife habitat\, and long-term stewardship goals. \nAlthough the 2025 signup window has not yet been announced\, this webinar will prepare you for the opportunity by covering:  \n\nWho qualifies for Grassland CRP \n\n\nHow to apply and what’s required \n\n\nHow rental rates are determined \n\n\nWhat landowners can expect during and after enrollment \n\nFeatured Speakers:  \n\nPatrick Lewis\, Acting Grassland CRP Program Manager\, USDA FSA \n\n\nShaleas Harrison\, Policy Manager\, Western Landowners Alliance \n\n\nLandowner Speaker TBA

SUMMARY:Surface Water Conservation Programs: What Are They\, and Are They Working?
DESCRIPTION:The sixth webinar of WLA’s 2025 Water Webinar series will examine the successes and challenges of compensated water conservation programs. We’ll take a deep dive into what these programs mean for landowners and water users\, and what opportunities might exist for finding common-ground solutions for addressing western water shortages within the guardrails of voluntary\, temporary\, compensated reduction in consumptive water use programs. \nJoin us to learn more about how these programs work\, what they mean for landowners and water users\, and how they could play a role in sustaining working lands and watersheds.

SUMMARY:Adapting With Virtual Fencing: Managing for wildlife and healthy grasslands in the Northern Great Plains part 1
DESCRIPTION:Virtual fencing is still a new and developing technology\, but for many ranchers\, it has transformed how they raise livestock while protecting and rejuvenating native grasslands and wildlife that rely on intact and healthy working lands. \nJoin Quivira Coalition and World Wildlife Fund for a two-part webinar series on virtual fencing! \nMay 12: Join Andrew Jakes\, a senior research scientist with the Wyoming Migration Initiative and Wyoming Cooperative Fish and Wildlife Research Unit\, and rancher Leo Barthelmess to learn about the connections between sustainable wildlife habitats and virtual fencing ranch management. \nMay 19: Interested in virtual fencing but don’t know which technology makes the most sense for your operation? Ask questions and hear from a panel of ranchers on different technologies available and what might be a best fit for you.* \n*Quivira Coalition and the Sustainable Ranching Initiative are not endorsing any specific technology. This is an educational opportunity to learn what technologies are available to consumers. \nYou’ll learn about how virtual fencing has been a major innovation for both conservation and flexible livestock management in the Northern Great Plains\, and leave with practical\, replicable action items for the lands you steward as a grazier.
