S 602 United States Senate · 119th Congress

Wildfire Resilience Through Grazing Research Act

This bill funds research at land-grant universities to study how grazing by hoofed animals (like cattle or deer) can reduce wildfire risks on public and private lands. It directs grants for developing grazing techniques that lower fire fuels, aid post-fire recovery, and protect soil, water, and native plants - while avoiding invasive species spread or erosion. Key research areas include rotational grazing, managed stocking rates, and water point management. The findings will be shared through educational materials and outreach to help landowners and managers adopt these practices. The bill focuses on research, not direct land management changes.
