For Future Generations of Ranchers and Sage Grouse

From the kitchen table to the boardroom table, USDA brings people together across the nation for: healthier food, natural resources and people; a stronger agricultural industry; and economic growth, jobs and innovation.

Each Friday, meet those farmers, producers and landowners through our #FridaysOnTheFarm stories. Visit local farms, ranches, forests and resource areas where USDA customers and partners do right and feed everyone.

This Friday, meet David Sceirine, who is protecting key wildlife habitat on his family's ranch near Bridgeport Valley, California. David and his brother Joe enrolled 2,375 acres into a conservation easement, safeguarding Sceirine Point Ranch from future development while helping the Bi-State sage-grouse, an at-risk bird that lives at the Nevada-California line where they ranch.
