dc.description | This article sets forth that more cattle could be grazing on thousands of acres of old crest wheatgrass in western North Dakota if both nitrogen fertilizer and 2, 4-D herbicide, were utilized. Simply the application of tillage was discouraged as they contended that it would merely increase the danger of soil erosion and loss of production for up to 2 years. This article addresses a renovation study was initiated in
1949 to evaluate various methods of increasing production from an old stand of crested wheatgrass Agropyron desertorum (Fisch ex Link.) Schult. A second study is reviewed in this paper focusing upon utilizing the entire
crested wheatgrass pasture was initiated in 1963. The pasture was divided into 4 parts and each given one of the following
treatments. Nitrogen was best applied late Fall. The application of 2,4-D was effective in it's control of fringed sagewort. | |
