The MidYear Meeting is one of two meetings that is held to set association policy that guides the Association through the year.

While the main focus of the meeting is for the setting of interim policy we also use the meeting as a networking opportunity for the MSGA membership. Ranchers and allied industry professionals gather together from across the state of Montana for two days filled with meetings, entertainment, education, and fun!

We are excited to welcome folks to Kearney, Nebraska for the Seventh Biennial America’s Grasslands Conference in June 2025! This year we are cohosting the conference with the Nebraska Grazing Lands Coalition and the University of Nebraska-Lincoln.

Our 2025 conference theme is Grasslands Across Generations, with a focus on the modification of grasslands over time and the progression of grassland conservation. This emphasis will also help orient our future endeavors and pave the way for the next generations to move this important work forward.

We have exciting plans for our three days together beginning with three field trips options which will allow participants to experience the largest intact temperate grassland on earth, visit local ranches, and native prairies.

This year we had an unprecedented number of presentation submissions, and we are working to put together an exciting lineup of speakers, posters, and roundtable talks that will comprise the second and third day of the conference. Another highlight to note, we will head to the Iain Nicolson Audubon Center for dinner featuring conservation ranching beef along with local beverages. Attendees will have the opportunity to explore the grounds of Rowe Sanctuary along the Platte River.
