Pastures and rangelands are a valuable resource for owners of equine and livestock. Our SDSU Extension team can help you maximize their nutritional value, overall health and longevity by providing research-based best management practices customized to the climate, use and geographical location of your pasture or rangelands.
These grasslands are also home to pollinators and wildlife. When landowners invest in their pasture and rangelands, they invest in one of South Dakota’s great resources.
