Lost Rivers Grazing Academy Offered in Salmon Idaho September 13-16th, 2022

September 13-16th, 2022 Eagle Valley Ranch, Salmon, Idaho

The Lost Rivers Grazing Academy is a 4-day hands-on workshop for livestock operators and their advisers and consults that want to harvest and sell more of the sun’s energy through grazing, improve soil health, reduce erosion, and reduce costs, primarily on irrigated pastures.

The Academy was first held in 1994 in the Lost River Valley and has been held at least once annually since then, except when disrupted by the pandemic.  The program has won state and national awards for Extension programs and is has been recognized internationally.  It has been attended by agency personnel and livestock operators from all over the western US, as well as from eastern US, Canada, Mexico and South America.
