“…Previous work has highlighted the environmental impacts of grazing (e.g., Vincent 2019). Grazing on federal land comes with a mix of costs, such as declines in water quality (Delrose et al 2020) and emissions (Wang et al, 2020), but may also have environmental benefits such as reductions in the risk of wildfire (Davies et al, 2016; Davies et al 2022). The coefficients reported in this paper can help further evaluate the costs and benefits of federal grazing, as well as expand to other sectors of the economy.…”

“…Similarly, the Bureau of Land Management's (BLM) grazing regulations provide for "biological thinning" for the purpose of fuels reduction and mitigating the risk of wildfire (43 CFR 4190.1[a][1]). But use of this administrative tool requires infrastructure and a livestock operation able to efficiently deploy grazing animals and at different places in different years ( Davies et al 2022 ).…”

“…Finally, the area was identified due to proximity and access from livestock operators who committed up to 1 700 cows to the research project. Five livestock operators have their home ranch within 10 km of the pastures, which was convenient and provided readily available labor related to managing cattle grazing distribution and numbers within the three research pastures ( Davies et al 2022b ).…”
