Pasture Improvements From Rainy Week Benefit Ranchers

Unusually fine rains this past week boost native pasture ranges. Temporary pastures can be used for grazing, allowing ranchers to keep all livestock off pastures until frost.

Deferment of native pastures boosts grass growth and cover

A Bosque Soil Conservation District study on the Bruce Parks ranch shows deferment of pastures from now to frost increases seed production, vigor, and cover. An illustration from a 4.2 inch June 1959 rain finds fields with cover lose little moisture and produce more grass. Cover and grass together yield more beef and profit.
