Sagebrush control methods boost native grass growth near Big Piney
A field trial north of Big Piney compares herbicide spraying, fire, and roto-beater or disking on sagebrush. Spraying shows the strongest grass recovery at nearly 95 percent yield and reduces grazing pressure, while burning and disking yield limited grass and risk soil damage. Willow treatments at O'Neil Ranch and Budd and Son show promising short term results but long term final outcomes remain uncertain.
