  <dc:description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;span data-olk-copy-source="MessageBody"&gt;The grasslands in the North Central region are managed by a diverse group of Federal, State, and Tribal agencies; nongovernmental organizations; partnerships; and private landowners. This chapter highlights these various grassland management entities, provides background information on their mission and organizational structure, and describes some of their key grassland management activities, including the way in which each entity engages private landowners in grassland management. Each section also describes emerging challenges and opportunities and high-level information needs. The review and synthesis of grassland management-related documents identified specific information needs, which are listed in an appendix to provide additional detail for anyone looking to collaborate with grassland management entities on shared interests in grassland management or research.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</dc:description>
