New Trees Show Good Survival in South Dakota Shelterbelts
Brookings Navy reports that young trees can establish with less soil moisture than crops require. Over four years the average survival in 62 miles of shelterbelts ranged from 2% in 1836 to 85% in 1935 without irrigation. Proper seed stock, careful grading, stock handling, ground prep, weed control, and rabbit and rodent protection are essential for success.
