How can we incorporate diverse species and processes into our farms and ranches to improve the quality and resilience of our operations? Is there a way to do this without losing valuable acreage, crops or stock? Wild Farm Alliance will discuss national efforts to promote healthy, viable agriculture that helps protect and restore wild Nature. The OAEC WATER Institute will share how working with our native keystone species, the beaver, can increase water quality and quantity, improve habitat on farms and rangelands, and promote climate-change resilience. Project Coyote will discuss non-lethal solutions to farming and ranching with coyotes and other predators, and how native carnivores can benefit healthy farm and ranch ecosystems.
