INTENT
Divide one’s land into land management units (LMUs) to allow for less overwhelming and more site-specific land management.
WHY DO IT?
- Optimize resource management
- Increase productivity
- Reduce risk and conflict
- Target ecosystem conservation
- Improve decision-making
HOW IT’S DONE
- Create a land map using the Texas A&M Forest Service online program, Map My Property
- Use the LMU Quiz to divide land into LMUs based on streams, contours, soil depth, and slope.
