Join us in October! See our website for registration and meeting details - www.texassrm.org/annual-meeting - Planning for our Annual Meeting is well underway, and 2026 is a phenomenal year for TSSRM. In addition to celebrating the rangelands we cherish in Texas, the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) of the United Nations has recognized 2026 as the “International Year of Rangelands and Pastoralists”, and we feel there is no time like the present to use our platform to make an impact on the future of native rangelands. Big changes are coming to Texas. Looking around, no one can deny that the rangelands that sustain our ranching industry will continue to face changes in the future. This year’s annual meeting will cover a variety of topics, from modern technology in rangeland management and ranching, to time-proven techniques of land management and conservation that have sustained the land we love for generations. It will also include a ranch tour, student competitions and presentations on the latest scientific research in the industry, and panel discussion made up of local ranchers.
