## Resource

"Archbold's mission is to build and share the scientific knowledge needed to protect the life, lands, and waters of the heart of Florida, and beyond." This quote from the Archbold Biological Station website describes well the impressive efforts of this large private research institute to integrate wildlife and ecosystem conservation efforts with ranch management. Ranches have also become increasingly important for water conservation. Listen to this interview to learn about innovative aquifer recharge and water quality programs paying ranchers for ecosystem services and coordinated by Archbold. Dr. Betsey Boughton has run Archbold's agroecology program for many years, and she is now the Director of Science for the station.
