[QUOTE="Dave, post: 1138851, member: 498"] I bet that those Nevada ranchers under stand range conditions much better than you do. The thing is that although they have been in a drought they did get timely spring rains that caused the cheat grass to grow real well. It is knee high. Cheat grass will make cattle fat until it heads out and then cattle wont touch it. And after it dries out it will burn like gasoline. It is also an invasive species so allowing it to go to seed is bad for the native species. There are a lot of reasons to graze this stuff down. Some of the BLM districts are allowing ranchers to graze. One district manager is bowed up and not allowing ranchers to do anything. That is what they are protesting. Oh, and they might not have a title to the land but they do hold a title to the grazing rights which they own. [/QUOTE]
