A lack of soil moisture in early April will impact growth from cool-season grass species such as Threadleaf sedge (blackroot) and Needlegrasses.

Needlegrasses will be completing their forage production and western wheatgrass is in its rapid growth window. If March-May precipitation was 50-75 percent of the long-term average, reduce stocking ...

The researchers would like to learn whether the two sites that remained healthy have needlegrasses that are genetically distinct. Grazing is a controversial strategy for grassland restoration. Some ...

The researchers would like to learn whether the two sites that remained healthy have needlegrasses that are genetically distinct. Plant ecologists Loralee Larios, UC Riverside, and Lauren Hallett, ...

Though it is disappearing, California's official state grass has the ability to live for 100 years or more. New research demonstrates that sheep and cattle can help it achieve that longevity.

When one looks out on those North Dakota pastures an observer may see “just grass.” It might surprise you, but North Dakota is home to around 150 species of grasses. Some of course are introduced, but ...

Recent (past 20 years) light grazing and rest-rotation have favored Poa pratensis at the expense of native needlegrasses (Achnatherum spp. and Hesperostipa spp.). We suggest that absence of a dominant ...

When it gets hot, 90 plus degrees, cool-season plants such as bromegrass, orchardgrass, fescues, needlegrasses, and wheatgrasses all struggle and will have a very slow growth rate, even if there is ...
