About Us

Born and raised in Coahuila, Mexico, Emiliano developed an early connection to ranching and livestock management, largely inspired by his father. He didn’t find his true calling until he chose his university studies. He studied agriculture and animal science, with a focus on natural resource management at Universidad Autonóma Agraria Antonio Narro, where he realized the importance of preserving our ecosystems. This led him to pursue graduate studies at Sul Ross State University’s Range and Wildlife Management program, which he believes will expand his ability to help preserve and restore rangelands.

Rangelands have been, are, and will remain a vital source of ecosystem services for humanity. Understanding the importance of preserving them drives us to seek new ways of understanding the elements that interact within them and how they shape the surrounding ecosystem. This awareness motivates his research, which aims to measure vegetation responses by examining two key variables – soil temperature and soil moisture – and how they interact with different grazing systems used in cattle ranching. By linking these environmental factors to management practices, this study seeks to provide practical insights that can help producers make more informed decisions, ultimately supporting healthier, more resilient rangeland ecosystems for future generations.
