 Plant Materials Program 

OVERVIEW 

Salina, Kansas 

October 2005 

The Manhattan Plant Materials Center (PMC) is one of 26 centers nationwide that 

uses plants to solve natural resource problems. The center is owned and operated by 

the United States Department of Agriculture’s Natural Resources Conservation Service 

(NRCS). 

The PMC serves a diverse region of the heartland including Kansas, Nebraska, 

northern Oklahoma, and northeastern Colorado. It is located on 169 acres in the Kansas 

River Valley south of Manhattan, Kansas. 

The PMC works with partners that include conservation districts, universities, other 

federal agencies, seed vendors and growers, tribes, Kansas Forest Service, Kansas 

Department of Wildlife and Parks, Kansas Department of Transportation, and the U.S. 

Department of Transportation. 

Manhattan PMC Program Highlights for 2005: 

• Previously provided plant materials to commercial seed growers who produced over 

373 tons of seed. The value of this commercially produced material totaled more than 

$7 million. This material will make it possible to carry out provisions of Farm Bill 

programs including Wildlife Habitat Incentives Program (WHIP), Conservation 

Reserve Program (CRP), Conservation Security Program (CSP), Wetlands Reserve 

Program (WRP), and Environmental Quality Incentives Program (EQIP). 

• Provided outreach efforts to Native American tribes in Oklahoma and Nebraska in the 

form of propagation and nursery establishment of culturally significant plants 

specifically for tribal use 

• Continued to evaluate the use of various organic waste by-products along with various 

plant materials to assist with the reclamation of drastically disturbed sites including oil 

drilling activities, mining activities, and saline seeps 

• Continued to evaluate forage quality and quantity of different plant varieties to provide 

flexibility in grazing and haying operations in Oklahoma, Kansas, and Nebraska 
 

-2- 

• Continued to develop re-establishment techniques to aid with the reintroduction of 

federally-listed, threatened plant species into their original tallgrass prairie habitat 

• Cooperatively released 'Verl' eastern gamagrass with Agricultural Research Service 

(ARS) 

• Presented poster paper at the Society for Range Management Annual Meeting "Seed 

Storage and Longevity of 15 Grass Species Under Two Storage Environments: 

Results of a Thirty-Year Study" 

• Made presentation during the Native Seed Quality Conference "Experiences in 

Production of Native Forbs and Legumes at the Manhattan PMC" 

• Conducted field day tours with the Kansas State University Agronomy Department 

• Conducted tours of the PMC for Kansas Range Youth Camp and student trainees 

• Developed and received approval to conduct three new studies at the PMC: 

 1. Increased seedling vigor and stand establishment of giant sandreed 

 (Calamovilfa gigantea) 

 2. Evaluate 'teff,' a cool season annual grass, for adaptability 

 3. Conifer tree selection for windbreak/shelterbelt establishment 

• Hired Alan Shadow as a career intern for the Manhattan PMC

Kansas Grazing Lands 

 Conservation Initiative 

OVERVIEW

Salina, Kansas 

October 2005 

The Grazing Lands Conservation Initiative (GLCI) is a voluntary effort to enhance 

the state’s 18.98 million acres of privately-owned grazing lands by increasing technical 

assistance at the grassroots level. Grazing lands account for 39 percent of the total land 

base in Kansas. 

The Kansas GLCI effort is led by the Kansas Grazing Lands Coalition (KGLC) with 

a steering committee comprised of sponsors with a vested interest in grazing lands. 

Sponsors include the Kansas Livestock Association, the Nature Conservancy of Kansas, 

Kansas Rural Center, Kansas Association of Conservation Districts, Kansas Forage and 

Grassland Council, Kansas Section of Society for Range Management, Kansas Sheep 

Association, Comanche Pool Prairie Resources Foundation, Cheney Lake Water Quality 

Project, Audubon of Kansas, Tallgrass Legacy Alliance, Kansas Alliance for Wetlands 

and Streams, and Kansas Farm Bureau. Advisory organizations include Natural 

Resources Conservation Service (NRCS), Kansas State University Research and 

Extension, Kansas Department of Wildlife and Parks, and Fort Hays State University. 

The KGLC strives to provide continuing educational opportunities for grassland 

managers and support for one-on-one technical assistance. 

Recently, the NRCS entered into a cooperative agreement with Top Drawer 

Communications to provide organizational assistance to KGLC and deliver identified 

products or deliverables, while strengthening the partnerships within the KGLC. Along 

with products, the cooperative agreement is designed to provide direction for the future of 

GLCI and the KGLC in the state of Kansas. 

The Kansas GLCI also supports the efforts of nine multi-county rangeland 

management specialists providing technical assistance to private grazing land 

landowners throughout Kansas. These specialists also assist in county and multi-county 

field days, camps for both the youth and adults, and one-on-one grazing land resource 

management assistance. 

In October 2004, the KGLC, along with the Kansas Alliance for Wetlands and 

Streams (KAWS), hosted a Salt Cedar Workshop in Ashland, Kansas. Technical 

presentations and a tour were held on the Gardiner Angus Ranch where 85 individuals 

were in attendance to hear about the most current information on control of invasive 

species like salt cedar.

Tallgrass Legacy Alliance 

 Congressional Earmark 

 Cooperative Agreement OVERVIEW 

Salina, Kansas 

October 2005 

The Flint Hills of Kansas stretch from the Nebraska line south to the Oklahoma line 

with a major portion of the Flint Hills in an area bordered by Highway 400 on the south, 

Highway 99 on the east, Highway 24 on the north, and Highway 77 on the west. This 

area comprises approximately three million acres of tallgrass prairie. Most of these 

rangelands are privately-owned rangelands and are basic to the environmental, social, 

and economic stability of the state. Healthy Kansas grazing lands translate directly into 

forage for livestock, habitat for wildlife, economic stability and sustainability of agricultural 

producers and rural communities, and clean water for many Kansas municipalities. 

Proper management of vegetation, soil, water, and animal (both domestic livestock and 

wildlife) resources leads to increased benefits to all users. 

Not all privately-owned grazing lands are managed for optimum potential and 

sustainability. Applied knowledge leads to wise land management decisions which 

benefit the resource and exert positive influence on social perceptions of agricultural land 

management by the non-agricultural public. Voluntary programs can disseminate this 

knowledge by encouraging acceptance and adoption of grazing land management 

technologies and achievement of multiple benefits through a comprehensive planning 

process. Through recognition of private property rights and voluntary participation in 

conservation programs, environmental, economic, and social benefits at the local level 

will be best realized and secured. 

A cooperative agreement was entered into between the Natural Resources 

Conservation Service (NRCS) and the Tallgrass Legacy Alliance (TLA) for the purpose of 

providing educational opportunities and technical assistance to the Flint Hills region of 

Kansas. 

One of these opportunities was a wildflower tour in Chase and Butler counties 

where approximately 250 individuals, many from urban settings, attended either of two 

tours through private lands where presenters spoke of the interaction between cattle and 

native rangelands. Participants were given the opportunity to join tour guides or plant 

identification specialists and learn to identify native plants including grasses, forbs, 

legumes, and shrubs. Management practices, such as prescribed burning, were pointed 

out to the participants to illustrate their importance in the long-term management of 

rangelands in the Flint Hills of Kansas. 
 

-2- 

In August the cooperative agreement sponsored an advanced level adult Range 

Management School at Rock Springs Ranch in Dickinson County. Thirty-one participants 

enrolled and participated in a three-day course which included management techniques, 

plant identification, grazing land planning, and a plant identification contest. Producers 

attending were both from the ranchland and urban setting in Kansas and Missouri. 

Instructors included both NRCS rangeland management specialists, Kansas State 

University Extension and Research personnel, and private grazing land specialists. 

As a part of the cooperative agreement, an Invasive Species Conference is 

scheduled for October 4, 2005, as well as two Flint Hills agricultural lease meetings 

scheduled for November 16 and 17, 2005.

Continuous Conservation 

Reserve Program (CCRP) 

OVERVIEW 

Salina, Kansas 

October 2005 

In Fiscal Year 2006 local buffer coordinators will again be assisting field offices 

with the promotion, enrollment, and implementation of conservation buffers. These 

coordinators, funded through an EPA 319 grant through Kansas Department of Health 

and Environment (KDHE) and Kansas Department of Wildlife and Parks (KDWP) funds, 

will be providing assistance in 45 counties throughout the state. The coordinators assist 

the USDA Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) and Farm Service Agency 

(FSA) with CCRP contract development and implementation. 

 

The State of Kansas has expanded the eligible area for the Kansas Water Quality 

Buffer Initiative to include all lands draining into the 20 federal reservoirs being used for 

drinking water in the state. This allows producers in these areas and the previously 

eligible high priority Total Maximum Daily Load (TMDL) watersheds to enter into a state 

contract when enrolling lands into the federal CCRP Filter Strip (CP21) or Riparian Forest 

Buffer (CP22) practices. 

 

NRCS and FSA are working with the Kansas Alliance of Wetlands and Streams 

(KAWS) to coordinate and improve playa program awareness. This joint effort targets 

the promotion of Wetland Restoration Non-Floodplain (CP23A) and Farmable Wetlands 

and Associated Buffer (CP27 and CP28) in the western part of the state. KDWP is also 

partnering in this effort through the Playa Lakes Joint Venture. 

 

The Field Borders (CP33) practice has proven to be very popular with Kansas 

producers, and all indications are that sometime this winter Kansas will reach the state 

program maximum of 20,000 acres enrolled. NRCS, FSA, Kingman County 

Conservation District, KDWP, and other local partners in Kingman County have teamed 

up to promote this practice in a big way. Their efforts have resulted in over 2,000 acres 

of field border enrollment in Kingman County benefiting their local producers, wildlife, and 

ultimately the local economy.

Incentives Program (EQIP) 

Ground and Surface 

Overview Water Conservation 

Salina, Kansas 

October 2005 

Overview

The Farm Security and Rural Investment 

Act of 2002 (the 2002 Farm Bill) authorizes 

the Ground and Surface Water 

Conservation (GSWC) provision of the 

EQIP. 

Assistance within this provision will facilitate 

a conservation measure that results in a net 

savings in ground or surface water 

resources in the agricultural operation of the 

producer. 

Net water savings can occur by: 

 Converting to a less water intensive 

cropping system or nonirrigated land

use. 

 Improving irrigation systems. 

 Enhancing irrigation efficiencies. 

 Improving water storage through water 

banking and groundwater recharge. 

 Including other practices that improve 

groundwater or surface water 

conservation, as deemed by the U.S. 

Department of Agriculture Secretary. 

Authorized funding: 

 Improving water storage through water 

banking and groundwater recharge. 

 $25 million for Fiscal Year (FY) 2002; 

 $45 million for FY 2003; and 

 $60 million for each FY 2004-2007. 

Information for Kansas 

 Cost-share and incentive payments are 

only eligible on land that has been 

irrigated at least two of the past five 

years. 

 All irrigated land that receives costshare or incentive payments is required 

to apply irrigation water management 

and water measuring devices. 

 Producers must stay within the certified 

rate and amount of existing water right. 

Application Evaluation Criteria: 

High Category - Priority #1

Kansas NRCS

Fiscal Year 2005 Technical Service Provider (TSP) Summary
The Natural Resources Conservation Service provides leadership in a partnership effort to help people conserve, maintain, and improve our natural

resources and environment. 

 An Equal Opportunity Provider and Employer 

 

 

Summary of 

Technical Service 

Providers (TSP) OVERVIEW 

Salina, Kansas 

October 2005 

• Over 100 TSPs certified to provide technical assistance to producers in Kansas 

have been certified by NRCS. This list includes about 15 engineers. These private TSPs 

are most often hired to provide assistance for animal waste storage and handling 

facilities, nutrient management, and pest management. 

• Kansas Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) has contracts with three 

engineering firms for technical assistance. The purpose of the contracts is to provide 

engineering surveys, designs, construction layouts, and checkout services for animal 

waste systems. This activity was in support of the Environmental Quality Incentives 

Program (EQIP). To date these firms have completed 17 designs and have 22 more 

projects in the design process. 

• Kansas NRCS had contracts with two engineering firms who completed 

assessments for 32 PL-566 watershed dams and one firm is working on 9 more 

assessments. This activity provides technical assistance for the Watershed 

Rehabilitation Program. 

• NRCS has entered into a contribution agreement with the Kansas Department 

of Wildlife and Parks (KDWP) to provide technical assistance to the Wildlife Habitat 

Incentives Program. Through this agreement, the KDWP provides most of the technical 

assistance required to carry out the program. 

• NRCS has entered into a contribution agreement with the Kansas Forest Service 

to provide technical assistance for forestry, windbreak, and riparian buffer practices. This 

assistance supports efforts related to Conservation Operations, EQIP, and Continuous 

Conservation Reserve Program. 

• Through our agreement, Kansas State University continues to provide training 

and educational opportunities to TSPs to enhance their abilities in the technical aspects 

of the Farm Bill programs. 

• Kansas NRCS has entered into a contribution agreement with the State 

Conservation Commission (SCC) to provide technical assistance (eight employees) and 

clerical assistance to allow NRCS employees to concentrate on the technical aspects of 

our assistance. 

• Kansas NRCS has entered into a cooperative agreement with the SCC to provide 

technical assistance for planning, design, installation, and certification of streambank 

protection measures.
