2027 Annual Meeting & Training- Wichita, KS

Wichita 2027: Our Enduring Grasslands
Grasslands have been here longer than human history and withstood the test of time throughout generations of change and the stewards who cared for them. Even through the exponential changes of today, Grasslands endure.
Join us in Wichita, Kansas, as the Society for Range Management rallies around Our Enduring Grasslands—a theme rooted in the full weight of “endure.” Our grasslands have outlasted human history, generations of stewards, and enjoy a deep Western heritage of living and working on the land, yet they also endure conversion, woody encroachment, invasive species, and relentless land‑use change. This Annual Meeting & Training puts that story front and center, showcasing the people and practices that are keeping rangelands productive, resilient, and ready for the next generation.
