Cottonwood and Antelope Range Livestock Research Stations Unit Report

Two research stations, the Cottonwood and Antelope Range Livestock Research Stations, are located in western South Dakota that allow research projects focused on needs of range livestock producers in that region. The stations are comprised primarily of native rangeland that is grazed by cattle at both stations, and also by sheep at Antelope. The philosophy of the research efforts has been focused on conducting applied research to solve problems and address rangeland and livestock management opportunities relevant to the livestock producers and land mangers of the region.
