Project Description

Project Title:  View help for Project Title Private landowner perceptions of prescribed fire near the Dakota Prairie Grasslands
Summary:  View help for Summary A survey examining perceptions of prescribed fire use was distributed to landowners in 18 counties (13 in North Dakota and 5 in South Dakota) that include or are adjacent to management units of the USDA Forest Service, Dakota Prairies National Grasslands. Surveys, mailed in 2021, consisted principally of a five-point Likert scale format in which respondents were asked to indicate the degree to which they agreed or disagreed with a series of statements. Questions were asked about agency relationships, management decision-making, attitudes towards public grazing lands, and attitudes towards prescribed fire. This data publication includes the summary data (mid-point and upper and lower 95% confidence interval points) for the 199 surveys that were returned.
