Our Mission: Sustaining our Ranching Heritage through education, innovation, and outreach. Created and endowed in 2003 by the King Ranch family in celebration of the legendary ranch’s 150th Anniversary, KRIRM is sustaining the ranching heritage through education, innovation, and outreach. The Institute offers the only ranch management master’s program in the world. As part of Texas A&M-Kingsville, KRIRM educates leaders to make a positive impact on the ranching industry, offers in-person and virtual rancher learning opportunities, and provides innovative ranching solutions through an applied research program.
