This app was designed to assist prescribed burners by allowing them to locate and enter multiple burn units, then choose weather parameters for each burn. The app will then notify you when your weather conditions are met for that burn up to 7 days in advance. We know weather forecasts are not accurate that far out, but this app should help with planning burns, especially for those trying to get multiple burns done, working with landowners or PBAs. It can be used anywhere in the US, and you can share your burn units with other PBA members, landowners, or whoever you choose, as long as they also have the app. It is free!
Land managers and practitioners in Wyoming, Montana, the western Dakotas, and surrounding areas now have two new tools to help address conifer encroachment on rangelands. The Reducing Conifer Encroachment in Western Rangelands Technical Guide and Pocket Guide provide science-based strategies to help identify early tree expansion and prioritize effective management actions.
These resources offer practical guidance to help protect rangelands, maintain forage production, and support wildlife habitat.
