Shane Green and Michael Margo discuss Ecological Site Descriptions (ESDs) and provide updates on the current state of ESD work, including the recent progress made on ESD development across the US and ongoing work on ecological states for pasture land.
Ecological site descriptions (ESDs) are a cornerstone of conservation planning, monitoring, and evaluation on rangeland and forestland. Efforts are underway to expand the utility of ESDs across multiple land uses including pastureland and cropland. This presentation provides an update on the development of ESDs nationwide, reviews the roles and responsibilities of NRCS employees in ESD development, demonstrates how pasture management interpretations are best incorporated into ESDs, and demonstrates how users can access them.
