Enabling producers and land managers to effectively establish and manage native grasslands through scientific research.
The Center for Native Grasslands Management provides a scientific background to producers and land managers, enabling them to effectively establish and manage native grasslands.
High priorities for our research include:
- forage production
- restoration of native grassland communities, particularly oak savannahs and woodlands
- wildlife conservation
- soil health
The Center’s second major focus is to make findings from our research widely available throughout the eastern United States. We work through Extension and partner organizations to share these results with producers, land management agencies, other researchers, and wildlife conservation organizations through publications, workshops, trainings, and field days.
