In the US West, sustaining the ecological and economic integrity of rangelands across both public and private lands depends largely on ranchers who make adaptive decisions in the face of variability and uncertainty. In this study, we build on previous conceptualizations of adaptive decision making that situate individual-level decisions within complex rangeland social-ecological systems. We surveyed 450 (36% response rate) Montana ranchers to gain insight into how key factors influenced adaptive decision making, specifically in the context of ongoing drought and climate-related change affecting rangeland ecology and productivity. We predicted that ranchers’ management goals, their use of information sources, and their use of monitoring would significantly influence the use of adaptive practices, with monitoring mediating the relationship between the explanatory and response variables. We tested these predictions using a path model analysis and found that management goals related to both stewardship and profit/production, the number of information sources used, and monitoring were all significantly and positively related to ranchers’ use of adaptive management practices. Interestingly, we found that these factors were hierarchical with monitoring and the use of information was the strongest predictor while management goals were secondary. The significant, mediating effect of monitoring on the use of adaptive practices suggests that monitoring may be an important means for providing ranchers with useful and timely information about rangeland condition that is needed to adjust their actions, meet their management goals, and adapt to drought and climate-related change. We argue there is a need to better understand the efficacy of monitoring designs—of what, by whom, and how—for adaptive decision making, and we discuss other considerations related to the provision of useful drought and climate information for adaptive decision making based on our findings. Major findings: A 2023 study of 450 Montana ranchers explored how they make management decisions during periods of drought and climate change. The researchers found that while a rancher's goals (like taking care of the land or making a profit) and their sources of information are important, the single strongest predictor of whether they use \"adaptive\" management practices is whether they have a formal monitoring program. Monitoring acts as a \"feedback loop,\" giving ranchers the data they need to adjust their grazing plans or water usage in real-time. Even though monitoring is incredibly helpful for keeping land healthy, fewer than half of the ranchers surveyed (42.9%) currently use a formal system, suggesting that helping ranchers with the cost and time of monitoring could greatly improve how rangelands are managed in the future." } ], "http://www.w3.org/2000/01/rdf-schema#label": [ { "@value": "A Revised Adaptive Decision-Making Framework for Rangeland Management" } ], "https://schema.org/funder": [ { "@id": "https://ror.org/0078xmk34" } ], "https://w3id.org/fdof/ontology#hasMetadata": [ { "@id": "https://w3id.org/np/RAtKULrFALbunrBxd1rm2ejh0yUsyEO2x7-NpybLAgEFU" } ], "https://www.w3.org/ns/dcat#contactPoint": [ { "@value": "ada.smith@oregonstate.edu" } ], "https://www.w3.org/ns/dcat#endDate": [ { "@value": "2023" } ], "https://www.w3.org/ns/dcat#startDate": [ { "@value": "2022" } ] } ] } ]
