Grazing management in riparian-wetland areas has been a major issue facing rangeland managers for more than three decades. In the late 1960s, growing concern about the environment prompted landowners, land managers, land users, and a highly interested public to take a critical look at land management practices, with an eye toward reducing adverse environmental consequences resulting from use of the land. That critical look identified management of livestock grazing in riparian- wetland areas as a significant issue that has assumed permanence on both private and public grazing lands.
