Grass and Grassland Fertility and Erosion Protection
Grass acts as a soil keeper reducing erosion and boosting fertility through grazing manure return. Corn on 8 to 10 percent slopes in Missouri and North Carolina loses 15 to 17 tons of soil per acre annually, while blue grass or lespedeza losses drop to 0.8 to 0.9 ton per acre. Similar trends appear in Kansas and the southern states comparing native grass sod and tillage and cotton with grassland. Decaying grass roots keep soil porous and moisture-absorption favored.

Logging Changes Drive Birch Borer Impact on Young Trees
A University of Michigan forestry bulletin reports the bronze birch borer mainly as a secondary enemy whose damage rises from logging driven environmental changes. Cutting tall trees alters ground heat, leaf litter, wind and humidity, increasing tree mortality and stunting growth in young birch. Dean Samuel T. Dana notes primary causes are physical environment changes from cutting.
