| Impact Report | 2007-2008 Program Year Valle Caldera Grazing Proposal Between the current Extension Northern District Director and the retired Northern District Extension Director and former Valle Caldera Board member, Santa Fe, Sandoval and Rio Arriba County Agents a proposal was submitted to the Valle Caldera Board to formulate an organization that would oversee the management of bringing in cattle from the surrounding areas around the Valle Caldera. Two other proposals were also submitted, one by the Wild Earth Guardians an environmental group and an artist cowboy out of Las Vegas NM. The Wild Earth Guardians offered to give $30,000.00, to the organization so that cattle wouldn’t graze there at all. The Wild Earth Guardians proposal was declined. The Extension proposal was also declined. The successful proposal went to the Las Vegas Cowboy artist who offered much more revenue than the Extension proposal or the Wild Earth Guardians. One of the proposals criteria was that significant weight would be given to the proposals that generated the most revenue for the Valle Caldera Board. |
