The
primary mission of the RCREC Range
Science Program is to conduct research to find solutions to problems
hampering profitable range management in south Florida. It is important
that management of rangelands production is compatible with the
environment for livestock and maintains the integrity and functionality
of natural systems. The RCREC Range Science Program is part of the UF/IFAS Range
Science Program.
The program develops integrated land management strategies to protect and
enhance rangelands and natural systems for wildlife habitat, agricultural and recreational
uses. It fosters education, expands knowledge, and rewards scholarship, using
multidisciplinary approaches, for the purpose of understanding, managing, and conserving
biological resources. |
