From the words of the Society for Range Management:
Al Steninger joined the Society for Range Management in 1961, and is a life member. A native of Elko, NV, Al has had a varied career. He’s been a buckaroo, a ranch manager, eared his BS/MS from Colorado State University, worked as a BLM Area Manager, range consultant, ranch broker, appraiser and arbitrator. Since 1968, he has operated Western Range Service and Nevada Ranch Service in Elko serving private clients west-wide. Al has improved management on millions of acres of rangeland. In all phases of his work, Al has maintained adherence to scientifically-based range management strategies. Al advocates that good range studies result in good range management decisions. Not only has he collected data, interpreted data, and turned data into management, he has applied the data on-the-ground on several large ranges he managed or advised, bring innovative range management into practice. Al’s consulting is built on strict ethical standards; he believes his clients deserve the truth based on facts. His brokerage and arbitration policy is: be thorough, be transparent, and provide service and ethics which are beyond reproach. His integrity has attracted collaboration with top scientists and educators in range management in conducting range studies and expert testimony. As part of a pioneering Elko family, Al has been active in support of the Elko County Fair, Northern Nevada Community College, Elko Historical Museum, and other civic projects. For his long-time efforts to combine good science with practical experience in managing rangelands The Society for Range Management recognizes Al Steninger with a 2017 Sustained Lifetime Achievement Award.
