Using Technology in Grazing Management

Quivira Coaltion

Mar 18, 2026

virtual webinar

Making grazing & stocking decisions has always required experience, observation, & good judgment. Today, ranchers also have access to powerful satellite-based tools that can strengthen those decisions without adding complexity or cost.


In this webinar, we’ll walk through the Rangeland Analysis Platform (RAP) — a free, easy-to-use online tool that provides fast access to vegetation & forage data across U.S. rangelands. You’ll learn how to view long-term vegetation trends, identify areas of encroachment or decline in forages or bare ground, and monitor forage conditions over time to establish long-term carrying capacity estimates using maps delivered instantly to your desktop.


We’ll focus on practical, management-level applications, including:

– Evaluating long-term forage production patterns

– Informing stocking-rate & grazing decisions

– Monitoring pasture performance & drought impacts

– Combining satellite data with local knowledge

– Tracking outcomes of management changes


Whether you are curious about the platform or already experimenting with grazing analytics, this session will provide clear, real-world guidance you can use immediately.


Katie Miller, technical support manager in partnership with June Curtis, Quivira’s intern, will lead this virtual workshop and share their experiences working with this technology.
