Grass assessments are a foundational tool in grassland conservation and management, providing critical information on the health, composition, and ecological value of grassland ecosystems, an important wildlife food source. The primary objectives of grass assessments are to identify and map native and non-native plant communities, measure the abundance and diversity of grass species, and assess soil health and site characteristics. Our assessments monitor changes in grassland condition over time, providing valuable data to inform management practices that help avoid or minimize disturbance to sensitive grassland ecosystems. By achieving these goals, our grass assessments play a crucial role in supporting sustainable land use, conservation planning, and ecosystem restoration efforts.
