Western National Rangeland CDE is a premier range judging event that is uniquely designed to be relevant to issues faced by land managers on western rangelands. This hands-on event has a contemporary field component with five categories:
𝟭. 𝗦𝘁𝗼𝗰𝗸𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗥𝗮𝘁𝗲 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗠𝗮𝗻𝗮𝗴𝗲𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁/𝗖𝘂𝗿𝗿𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝗥𝗮𝗻𝗴𝗲𝗹𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗜𝘀𝘀𝘂𝗲

𝟰. 𝗥𝗮𝗻𝗴𝗲𝗹𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗔𝘀𝘀𝗲𝘀𝘀𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁
𝟱. 𝗥𝗮𝗻𝗴𝗲𝗹𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗘𝗰𝗼𝘀𝘆𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗺 𝗠𝗲𝗮𝘀𝘂𝗿𝗲𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁𝘀
During the awards ceremony dinner, students will receive the opportunity to listen to keynote speakers about rangeland career opportunities from professionals from natural resource management agencies and organizations or business operations involving rangelands such as ranching.
The goal of this contest is to raise awareness about rangelands and introduce career opportunities to high school students. Connecting youth with rangeland professionals is a solid pathway to attracting students to career opportunities on the range and one approach to increasing the number of rangeland professionals ready to enter the workforce. Participants can also apply the knowledge they have gained to the areas in which they live, work, and recreate.
