Grass, Legume and Forb Cultivation

Photograph of Graft Jordan (left) and Marshall Jordan, SCS technician (right), observing native bluestem pasture which Graft has brought back by resting it periodically. This pasture was rested from August 1, 1949 to August 1, 1950, then grazed until December 1, 1950 and rested again until May 1, 1951. The predominating grass is little bluestem. Graft’s range is divided into three large prairies. “If I winter my cattle on one of the pastures,” he says, “that pasture is not used during the following growing season.” He stocks his native grass pastures during the growing season at a rate of 20 to 25 head of cattle per quarter section. [Unclear]—High good, range condition. OK-10, 587.
