Restore New Mexico is an initiative launched by the Bureau of Land Management to "restore" over 3 million acres of land with a focus on "controlling invasive brush species" and "reducing woodland encroachment." Carried out in partnership with ranchers, the program was based on the premise that so-called "virtual wastelands of creosote and mesquite" need to be reconverted into "fragile desert grasslands."[1]
