The National Cattlemen’s Beef Association and the Public Lands Council say they’re pleased farmer and rancher input has been adopted as part of the Biden administration’s conservation goals report.
Kaitlynn Glover with NCBA and PLC says the report is a good starting point. “It doesn’t contain a lot of details, but what it says is ‘we don’t have a baseline for conservation,” she says. “They don’t quite know what will count as part of this proposal, but creating an interagency working group to figure that out.”
The America the Beautiful initiative, previously called 30×30, is a 10-year roadmap to conserving 30 percent of the nation’s land and waters by 2030.
