WILLCOX — A rural landowner is a wildlife manager.

That’s a concept Ag Day organizers want area residents to consider as the 31st annual program approaches.

Along with the informative offerings farmers and ranchers have come to expect, a new workshop, “Living with Wildlife: A Workshop for Land Owners” is geared toward the small-
acreage owners — anywhere from one acre to 40.

“If you are a landowner, you are a wildlife manager,” says Jim Knight, with the Montana State University Cooperative Extension.
