Farmers and Ranchers across the west have seen the devastating impacts of wildfires for decades. Farm Bureau has been a strong advocate for increased communication and collaborative planning with the producers that live and work on lands impacted by wildfires.

To continue and expand those efforts, we are seeking information on experiences from producers who have experienced wildfires on their operations. Our efforts are specifically focused on damage caused by fire response and management efforts like backburns, fire lines, etc.

We plan to use the data we collect in order to illustrate the need for additional efforts by federal land management agencies to address landowner and lessee concerns, prevent unnecessary damage to infrastructure and loss of production capacity as a result of wildfire. None of your answers will be publicly attributed to you or any other individual, and all of your contact information will be kept private.

Thank you in advance for your time and help with this important issue!
