Collaborating to conserve the only terrestrial ecoregion that extends across Canada, Mexico and the United States
Disturbances such as agricultural and residential expansion have negatively impacted the central grasslands of North America, affecting water and food security and leading to the loss of biodiversity. We have brought together conservationists and ranchers in the 3 countries to promote beneficial management practices on ranch land. Since 2011, more than 360,000 acres (146,000 ha) of ranch land have been placed under sustainable management through initiatives we have funded.
Nearly 100 beneficial management practices aimed at ranchers, conservation organizations, government and academic institutions in North America.
Partnerships and beneficial management practices for sustainable livestock management.
These sets of infographics stem from CEC-funded efforts to chronicle trends in the North American cattle ranching industry and beef cattle trade.
