Friday Farming: New UW Extension Publications Estimate Economic Impact of Removing Federal Grazing
In a word, it would be far-reaching:
New UW Extension Publications Estimate Economic Impact of Removing Federal Grazing
None of which kept a Cheyenne newspaper I'd never heard of from claiming basically that ranching is irrelevant in regard to the state's agriculture, the sort of headline that causes even people not otherwise inclined to distrust the press and suspect it has an agenda to do just that.
The Tribune, I'd note, did much better with its headline.
The Studies, as posted on the UW Ag Extension site, can be found here:
 | Economic Impacts of Removing Federal Grazing Used by Cattle Ranches in a Three-State Area (Idaho, Oregon, and Wyoming)Publication #: B-1385.4 |
 | Economic Impacts of Removing Federal Grazing Used by Cattle Ranches in OregonPublication #: B-1385.3 |
 | Economic Impacts of Removing Federal Grazing Used by Cattle Ranches in IdahoPublication #: B-1385.2 |
 | Economic Impacts of Removing Federal Grazing Used by Cattle Ranches in WyomingPublication #: B-1385.1 |
Note, that's a direct copy from the UW Ag extension website.
I'd note that part of the ongoing angst of our age is the real boneheaded effort to remove agriculture from the public lands. It would end up developing those lands, as if areas like Ft. Collins or Denver are somehow a better thing for nature. The people who advocate such things haven't really thought them through
