Texas Master Naturalist Hill Country Chapter presents ‘Rangeland Management Tools for You’
The Texas Master Naturalist, Hill Country Chapter continues to have in-person Monthly Chapter Meetings. The next Chapter Meeting and Advanced Training session is open to the public and will be held Monday, March 27.
Rainey Bingham will present “Rangeland Management Tools for You.” This presentation will provide a basic overview of rangeland management and land stewards can apply these techniques to your own property, no matter the acreage. To begin, she will discuss the importance of rangeland management, rangeland health, and management plans; then transition into the methods used to accomplish our goals. A handful of chemical and mechanical brush management methods are highlighted as well as prescribed fire.
Bingham is the county extension agent Ag/NR from Texas A&M AgriLife Extension Service in Real County. She grew up in south Texas. She moved to College Station to begin work on her undergraduate degree in Agricultural Science, or Ag Education, from Texas A&M University. While she was there, she worked at the Texas State 4-H office in the Natural Resources Department under Larry Hysmith. After graduating from Texas A&M in 2020, Bingham moved to San Angelo to start her graduate degree. After two short years, Bingham graduated from Angelo State University in 2022 with her master's degree in agriculture. While there, Bingham worked at the District 7 AgriLife Extension office in the department of Range, Wildlife, and Fisheries Management under Dr. Morgan Treadwell.
