| Abstract: |
Concern over oak woodlands has shifted away from ranch management towards residential areas. This shift has been accompanied by the involvement of decision makers who previously had little involvement with rangeland policies and practices. A survey of three recent Cooperative Extension workshops illustrates a number of important patterns regarding interest and activities of small landowners, landscape professionals, local government employees and concerned neighbors. The process of addressing these potential decision makers through existing professional or issue based interest groups offers significant efficiencies regarding communication and monitoring strategies. |
