Scope
The Sacramento Area Flood Control Agency (SAFCA) is requesting proposals from qualified firms or individuals (Grazer) to lease and operate an ecologically and economically viable cattle operation on certain SAFCA-managed lands located in the Rio Linda area, within Sacramento County, California, according to these specifications and as directed by SAFCA. The proposed grazing activity will be conducted with non-exclusive rights to use approximately 532 acres. The cattle grazing lease is for the period from March 1, 2027, through February 28, 2030, subject to renewal, or termination for non-performance, with 2 one-year extension options. Base stocking capacity in this RFP is 711 animal unit months (AUMs) per year on the Grazing Properties under normally available forage production conditions but will vary year to year to higher or lower amounts depending on available forage production as a result of yearly rainfall (estimated to vary from 397 to 1,130 AUMs per year) and the potential for loss of forage from wildfire and flooding. The goals of grazing management for SAFCA for these Grazing Properties include maintenance of wildlife habitat and native vegetation, control of invasive plants, management of hazardous fuels, and providing an additional stewardship presence on the property to observe conditions and communicate with SAFCA when appropriate.

How to bid on this
This is a contract solicitation, not a grant. To bid, you submit a proposal (usually a price and a description of how you would do the work) directly to the government, through the channel the official listing specifies, not through Oppward.
- Make sure your business has an active SAM.gov registration. You cannot be paid on a federal contract without one.
- Read the full solicitation on the official listing above, especially the scope of work, not just this summary. Our guide to reading a solicitation walks through what to look for.
- This listing has no set-aside restriction ("full and open competition"), meaning any business, large or small, can bid.
- Submit your proposal by the deadline, using the exact submission method the official listing states. A technically on-time bid sent the wrong way is often treated as late.
