Paper doi abstract bibtex Despite decades of study, current research on grazing management’s impacts on ecosystem health and its socioeconomic drivers remains too limited in scope and scale to enable adaptive, evidence-based decision making by producers. There is a pressing need for interdisciplinary research that collects ecosystem data at broader spatial and temporal scales while incorporating working farms and ranches. Such efforts are critical for informing grazing decisions and understanding grazinglands’ potential to deliver ecosystem services, including climate mitigation, water cycling, resilience, and rural livelihoods.
