The Bureau of Land Management's mission is to sustain the health, diversity, and productivity of public lands for the use and enjoyment of present and future generations.
The BLM Arizona Rangeland Management Program is dedicated to administering grazing across over 155 million acres of public land. Its broad goals include inventorying, controlling, and managing noxious weeds and invasive species; enhancing rangelands through informed grazing management, vegetation restoration treatments, and the development of grazing management infrastructure; as well as soil resource management. This initiative emphasizes coordination with land managers and stakeholders to undertake soil surveys, ecological site descriptions, and projects aimed at improving soil stability while mitigating erosion. Additionally, the effective management of rangeland and soil resources supports various actions and authorizations, covering endangered and special status species recovery, domestic livestock grazing, recreation, forest management, hazardous fuels reduction, and post-fire rehabilitation endeavors.
