RANGELAND SERVICES
Rangelands makeup more than 60
percent of the surface area in the United States. They stretch from the
humid southeast of Florida to the arid cold deserts of eastern Washington,
and north into Alaska. They provide forage for domestic livestock, habitat
for almost all major wildlife species, and the energy and minerals to fuel
commerce. They are the watersheds that supply the nation’s rivers, and the
uncultivated lands that feed America’s hunger for recreation.
SES understands the vital role of rangelands and the key that their
natural resources hold for environmentally healthy communities and
economically sustainable industries.

properly manage, conserve and sustain rangeland soils, plants, water and
wildlife. Our scientists and policy experts are highly skilled in land-use
