Body

Sideoats grama is a key species for indicating forage use on the Rolling Plains of Texas. A regression equation for field determination of percent utilization of sideoats grama was developed and tested. The method developed, based on measurements of total height and stubble height, is more rapid and accurate than other methods commonly used by technicians. This material was digitized as part of a cooperative project between the Society for Range Management and the University of Arizona Libraries. The Journal of Range Management archives are made available by the Society for Range Management and the University of Arizona Libraries.
