Finally Some Common Sense
By Robert R. Marble
As an ex cattle rancher who spent way too much time (as did my employees) trying to get similar ideas across to the BLM I find this book to be incredibly refreshing. Ranchers, environmentalists and government range managers should be required to read this book. Daggett is to be commended for having the guts to take on this monumental change in attitude amongst all those named above and he's proved his point. Ranchers need to face the fact that they can change their ways for the betterment of all and evironmentalits and government range managers need to open their eyes to the fact that we are never again going to have the rangelands we had 200 years ago. But, with this approach, we can have the best of both worlds for the range, the ranchers and the public. We can also redirect the incredible amount of time, money and effort that is wasted on the wars between all involved to more productive, peaceful and productive pursuits.

Rangeland Wisdom
By Gerard Reed
Reared on the High Plains, I’ve always loved the West’s wide-open spaces. One of the earliest songs I remember hearing on the radio in Dodge City, Kansas (no doubt sung by Gene Autry and the “Sons of the Pioneers”), was “Home, Home on the Range.” And after all these years I still share that early longing for “a home where the buffalo roam, where the deer and the antelope play, where never is heard a discouraging word, and the skies are not cloudy all day.” So I recently read with interest Dan Dagget’s Beyond the Rangeland Conflict: Toward a West that Works (Flagstaff, AZ: The Grand Canyon Trust, c. 1995).
As a journalist strongly committed to environmentalism, Dagget served “as conservation chair of the Northern Arizona Sierra Club group and as a writer for a number of environmental journals, including the Earth First! Journal.” The Sierra Club once ranked him as one of the 100 top grass-roots activist in the nation. He glibly chanted the mantra “nature knows best,” insisting she be allowed to follow her inner wisdom. He also viewed ranchers—particularly those grazing cattle on public lands—as harmful intruders who should be removed in order to allow Mother Earth to heal herself from the wounds of civilization. He “repeated—too many times to count—the statistics that make up the indictment against western ranchers: that domestic grazers are responsible for destroying up to 90 percent of some western states’ riparian areas that are, in turn, vital to up to 80 percent of the region’s indigenous species; that livestock are the reason 59 percent of our public rangelands are in poor condition; that the belches of livestock contribute to global warming; their excrement fouls our campgrounds and pollutes our streams, and bits of their bodies clog our arteries” ( p. 7).
In time, however, a powerful truth overwhelmed him: the lands wisely used by good ranchers flourished better than those left alone! As he surveyed the West, talked with the people who live on the land, and studied the issue, he concluded that “much of the western range is in worse shape than even some of the most alarming assessments would have us believe,” with “denuded and eroding” mountains and deserts, dying streams and endangered wildlife (p. 1). But, contrary to environmentalist rhetoric and federal policy, these problems flowed from the widely-held notion that ecosystems left alone thrive but suffer under the hand of man. In truth, grazing animals generally improve the health of the land and enable it to promote the biodiversity real environmentalists (including many ranchers) desire. Thus: “The main objective of this book is to chronicle the success stories of these ranchers, and, as much as possible, the management teams with whom they work to increase biodiversity, revive riparian areas and watersheds, and restore the vitality of grasslands and savannas.” Dagget hopes “to encourage more environmentalists to work with ranchers and find their reward on the land, rather than in the hearing room or the courtroom” (p. 11).
To prove his case, Dagget shows, through personal vignettes and stories as well as gorgeous pictures (often showing, side-by-side flourishing grazed land compared with degraded left-alone preserves), how ranchers in various areas are rightly caring for the land. He visits ranches in New Mexico, Arizona, Montana, Colorado, Wyoming, Utah, and Nevada, arguing that similar approaches throughout the arid West could restore vast regions to the health they enjoyed centuries ago (when Indians set fires to control the grasslands and wild animals did what cattle can now do).
“The ranchers and conservationists who populate these pages,” says Wendell Berry in his promotional blurb, “have quit fighting over the contested landscapes and have begun restoring them. It would be hard to overestimate the importance of their stories. I read this book eagerly, recognizing it as something I have been waiting for, and it gave me hope.”

Learning to work w/environmentalists and has it been successful?
By Patricia
I have been researching the animal rights movement and its' involvement w/Agenda 21, now referred to as Agenda 2030 and/or other labels such as "General Plan 2030."
Beyond the Rangeland Conflict provides the reader w/first hand stories of the methodology being used by the EPA and other regulators, to work w/long time large ranches. Purportedly, to save the environment.
What amazes me as a long time upland game hunter is, farmers, ranchers and hunters have for decades been environmentalists. To succeed, one must work w/and monitor weather, water, rain, and so on. Ranching is a very special life style and not meant for all persons. Ranchers do an amazing job feeding America and government needs to back off and learn from those who live w/the environment every single day. An excellent read and do it w/an open mind.
