Biodiversity starts with the species that call our grasslands home.

The Habitat Biodiversity Assessment Tool (HBAT) helps producers identify and better understand the plant and wildlife species present on their land — from native grasses and pollinators to birds and species at risk.

By recognizing what’s there, producers can make informed management decisions that support habitat, protect sensitive areas and maintain the natural balance of their ecosystems. Even small actions, like preserving native vegetation or improving grazing timing, can have a meaningful impact on the species that depend on these landscapes.

Healthy land supports diverse species — and diverse species help keep our grasslands strong and resilient.

Healthy grasslands start from the ground up.

Rangelands support rich soil ecosystems through deep-rooted perennial plants that help build organic matter, reduce erosion and improve soil structure over time.

These healthy soils are key to storing moisture, cycling nutrients and supporting resilient forage production.

As part of the International Year of Rangelands and Pastoralists (IYRP) 2026, we’re highlighting the connection between sustainable grazing and long-term soil health.

Healthy soils help build healthy grasslands.

Join us on June 24 at 7:00 PM (SK CST) for an upcoming Young Rancher webinar as we host a producer panel discussion on shifting calving dates to May and June. Hear firsthand from producers who have made the change as they share their experiences, lessons learned, and the realities of later-season calving.



Our panelists will discuss the benefits and challenges of a later calving date, including impacts on labor, forage management, herd health and profitability. The discussion will also explore how a well-developed grazing plan can support a later calving season.



Whether you're considering a change to your calving season, looking to improve your grazing management, or simply interested in learning from producers who have made the shift, this discussion will offer valuable insights and practical takeaways.

Healthy landscapes support wildlife in all shapes and sizes — including at night. 🦇

The Little Brown Myotis is a small bat that plays an important role in grassland and agricultural ecosystems by helping control insect populations. These natural pest managers contribute to a healthy ecological balance across working landscapes.

In the HBAT report, the Little Brown Myotis is identified as an endangered species, highlighting the importance of protecting diverse habitats and maintaining healthy ecosystems.

Features like wetlands, shelterbelts and natural habitat areas can all help support species like the Little Brown Myotis while contributing to overall biodiversity.

The Habitat Biodiversity Assessment Tool (HBAT) helps producers better understand how their land supports species at risk and where stewardship opportunities can make a lasting impact.

📣Ranch Tour Spotlight: Pine Ranch 📣

We are excited to visit Pine Ranch near Morse, SK, where Cyle and Erika Stewart are building a resilient and thriving ranching operation.

In 2017, Cyle and Erika, along with Erika's parents, Bill and Terry Strande, made the big move from British Columbia to Saskatchewan- bringing their cattle herd and ranching dreams with them.

Like many producers in the region, they have faced their share of challenging drought years. Those experiences have pushed them to continually adapt and improve their management practices. Through implementation of cross-fencing, AMP grazing, and expansion of their summer water system, they have improved forage utilization and strengthened the resilience of their grazing lands.

During our stop, the Stewarts will share their experience of improving water availability to their livestock and how it has helped their rotational grazing.

We are grateful to Cyle and Erika for opening their gates and welcoming us to Pine Ranch. We look forward to learning from their journey and seeing their grazing system firsthand!

Registration is now open for the CFGA National Grassland Mentor Tour, happening July 4–6 in Saskatchewan!

Join the Canadian Forage and Grassland Association for three days of learning, connection and celebration as we recognize the International Year of Rangelands & Pastoralists and the importance of Canada’s grasslands.

This tour brings together producers, conservation leaders and grassland champions from across the country to explore native prairie landscapes, share knowledge and highlight the stewardship and innovation shaping the future of grazing in Canada.

Tour stops include Grasslands National Park and the Riverview Ranch Virtual Fencing Demo Site, with plenty of opportunities to connect and learn along the way.

❌ Myth: Pollinators only rely on gardens and flowering crops

✅ Fact: Grasslands provide essential habitat for many pollinators

Native prairie offers food, shelter and space for pollinators throughout the growing season. Healthy grasslands help support biodiversity both on and off the farm.

What role can virtual fencing play in rotational grazing?

CFGA’s Virtual Fencing in Rotational Grazing webinar explored how this technology is being used to support grazing management, improve pasture utilization and offer producers more flexibility when managing livestock on the land.

From creating grazing boundaries without physical fencing to adapting pasture movements more efficiently, virtual fencing is opening new conversations around innovation in forage and grassland management.

Interested in learning more about how producers are putting this technology into practice? Watch the webinar through CFGA’s Resource Library.

Canada’s grasslands are one of our most valuable — and often overlooked — natural assets.

The Grassland Inventory is helping build a clearer understanding of these landscapes by identifying where grasslands exist, how they’re being used and why they matter. This information is key to supporting better management, stronger conservation efforts and more informed decision-making across the sector.

From supporting biodiversity and storing carbon to sustaining livestock production, healthy grasslands play a critical role in both environmental and agricultural systems.

By improving our understanding today, we can better protect these landscapes for the future.
