Land managers need a strategy so they can respond quickly and with
appropriate restoration resources to landscape-scale ecological changes.
The National Seed Strategy fits the bill, providing a coordinated approach
to stabilize, rehabilitate, and restore public and private lands in
response to severe weather events such as Hurricanes Matthew and Sandy, the
serious drought conditions and altered fire regimes across the country, and
the fast spread of invasive species nationwide. Peggy Olwell will describe
The National Seed Strategy and its framework for actively working with land
managers and private industry to respond to disturbances and other
stressors that threaten important native plant communities and ecosystem
services in the U.S.
