Thanks for your patience during our recent outage at scalar.usc.edu. While Scalar content is loading normally now, saving is still slow, and Scalar's 'additional metadata' features have been disabled, which may interfere with features like timelines and maps that depend on metadata. This also means that saving a page or media item will remove its additional metadata. If this occurs, you can use the 'All versions' link at the bottom of the page to restore the earlier version. We are continuing to troubleshoot, and will provide further updates as needed. Note that this only affects Scalar projects at scalar.usc.edu, and not those hosted elsewhere.

Schrecka2fcfe32c1f76dc9d5ebe09475fa72e5633cc36dHolistic resource management, as explained by Maggie Hanna, is a philosophy of management that attempts to consider "the whole picture." This includes the health of the ranching family, the health of the financial resources, the health of the animals, and the health of the land. It is a way to understand, measure, and manage the health of the entire system.
Holistic resource management at the Hanna Ranch began with Kirk Hanna in the 1980s.
