Objective:
Develop planning and evaluation methodologies for improved multiobjective grazing managementin the southwestern United States and northern Mexico.

Approach:
Develop multiobjective data bases through field experiments, simulation models, and expert opinion. Integrate the data bases with National Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) planning and evaluation methodologies and the Southwest Watershed Research Center decision support system. Apply the methodology in Arizona and Mexico at a range of scales from hillslope to small watershed. Transfer the technology in the form of data bases, simulation models, a decision support system, and publications. Documents SCA with U. of Arizona. Formerly 5342-12660-002-11S (12/03).
