KNPB's newest local production Stewards of the Rangeland points a spotlight on livestock management strategies of four northern Nevada ranching families, who make extensive use of Nevada’s public land. Follow along as the ranchers give us an inside look on what it means to be a rancher in the current climate and how each has to tailor their ranch to fit the distinctive environment that is Northern Nevada.

Producer Dennis Golden introduces viewers to the ranchers of Nevada's public lands. These stewards face a variety of challenges while maintaining BLM and US Forest Service land as well as their own ranches and families, and they each have their own methods for getting it done.

The four ranching families and locales include:
• Tipton's in Winnemucca
• Cassinelli's in Paradise Valley
• Dufferena's in Denio
• Boies' in Wells
