Virtual fence user guide on Rangelands Gateway: Practical insights for prospective users
On the Ground • Virtual fence (VF) is an increasingly appealing precision livestock technology that allows land managers to remotely monitor and manage animal movement with a combination of auditory and electrical cues that originate from a wearable device, often a collar. • The VF User Guide ( https://rangelandsgateway.org/vf ) is a digital resource created within the Rangelands Partnership's Rangelands Gateway website to provide prospective VF …
Challenges and opportunities to leverage virtual fence data for rangeland management
Most virtual fence (VF) devices use the Global Positioning System (GPS) to locate and track the position of livestock. • VF devices transmit GPS data across the internet to the VF software, and users can monitor the location and distribution of livestock across a pasture or grazing allotment in near real time. • Data from VF devices can be used to address resource management concerns as they occur rather than after, and managers can potentially u…
Is virtual fencing right for you? Producer considerations for successfully deploying and managing livestock with a virtual fence system
Virtual fencing (VF) is a recent development in agriculture technology with a high potential to improve management outcomes on public and private grazing lands. Adoption is expected to accelerate as the technology improves in providing safe and effective management capabilities for diverse operating contexts. • Although the applications of VF are numerous, it is not a silver bullet to solve grazing management issues and is not always beneficial f…
Using virtual fence to manage livestock in arid and semi-arid rangelands
The emergence of virtual fence (VF) as a precision livestock technology presents an opportunity to move beyond physical fences and alter grazing distribution over expansive arid and semi-arid rangelands. • VF can be used to gather and move livestock through a grazing rotation by using passive capture techniques, which enhance predictability and reliability in rotation management. • VF can effectively influence livestock distribution by dividing l…
Quantifying the substantive influence of public comment on United States federal environmental decisions under Nepa
A citizen’s right to comment on, and criticize, government decisions makes a difference. The U.S. National Environmental Policy Act of 1969 (NEPA) institutionalized public engagement in environmental review in the belief it would lead to better decisions and more sustainable outcomes. But, 50 years later, NEPA’s public comment process has been criticized as costly and slow, while doing little to change outcomes. Data science now makes it possible…
Wildfire Evacuations Prompt Increased Support for Wildfire Mitigation Policies in Pima County, Arizona
Multi‐species, multi‐country analysis reveals North Americans are willing to pay for transborder migratory species conservation
Migratory species often provide ecosystem service benefits to people in one country while receiving habitat support in other countries. The multinational cooperation that could help ensure continued provisioning of these benefits by migration may be informed by understanding the economic values people in different countries place on the benefits they derive from migratory wildlife. We conducted contingent valuation surveys to estimate the willing…
