The Watts Ranch currently supports a cow calf operation with 40 cows and there is also a hay field in the flat that supplies the ranch with feed for the cattle during the months when feed is limited. The main goal of our project is to implement agricultural land management practices that reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and/or increase the amount of carbon sequestered in soils and plant material while maintaining or increasing forage production and quality. We propose to apply compost and to seed perennial grass forages to 20 acres of non-irrigated rangeland - combined, these efforts will build soil health, maximize photosynthesis, and increase climate resilience.
