Proper Grasses
Recommended on
Reserve Lands
BY j. r. Langendorf
u. S. Soil Conservation


Farmers and ranchers should
plant only the grasses recon-
mended for Eastern Montana or
conservation reserve lands. The
results of many years experience
with numerous varieties of tame
and native grasses by the Soil
Conservation Service and other
State and Federal agencies indi-
cate that crested wheat grass is
the most reliable variety of tame
grass for general dry land seed
ings in Eastern Montana. How
ever, the addition of n or two
native grasses such as green
needlegrass and western wheat or
both to crested wheat grass pro-
vides better ground cover for
erosion control.
The writer observed hundreds
of acres of nearly pure stand Of
crested wheat grass seeding in
Eastern Montana during the past
decade. Nearly all of the estab-
lished fields show a high percent
age of bare soil between plants
which is subject to wind and
water erosion. Crested wheat
grass is a bunch grass and old
paintings show ~apedestal effect
which indicates that some erosion
has occurred over the years. Al
most complete ground cover is
achieved by adding one or two

sod forming native grasses such
as green needle and western
wheat grass to the mixture. A
combination of these grasses vii
also produce more and better
feed for livestock.
The above combination of graS-
ses is recommended by the Sol
Conservation Service for nearly
all dry land grass paintings in
eastern Montana. Buffer strips on
contour stripped fields should be
seeded to this combination of
tame and native grasses, as well
as dry crop land no longer need
ed for crop production. The adj
dition of one-half pound of al
falfa to any grass seed mixture
is profitable.
Seeding rates for these grasses
should run approximately 3 20
5 pounds of crested wheat grass,
/ to 2 pounds of green needle
grass, ! to 2 pounds of western
wheat grass, and one-half pound
of alfalfa per r
Farmers and ranchers may have
fields with certain soil conditions
which should be seeded to other
varieties of grass. For example,
tall wheat grass produces quite
abundantly on some wet saline
lands; a mixture of smooth bronze,
intermediate wheat grass and
western wheat grass are ideal
for grassed waterways. 1t is wise
to consult your county agent or
Soil Conservation Service Tech
nician concerning the varieties,
seeding rates and mixtures adapt
ed to your conditions.
The source of the grass seed, as
well as its termination and puri-
~ should certainly be considered.
Out of state grass seed should
come from states having similar
climatic conditions as Montana.
Seed produced in North Dakota
or in Canada would be more
adapted than seed produced in
Nebraska or Kansas.
termination and purity require
