Upper Llanos Soil Conservation Plans Reseed and Fencing
J R Perl plans to reseed a 7 acre trap south of his home with native grasses and cross fence his North pasture to create two equal sections for deferred grazing. Coke R Stevenson benefits from resting 200 acres across Jackson Telegraph and related pastures totaling about 2975 acres with 150 cattle fed none this winter. He aims to finish cedar cutting this year and save blocks for wildlife and livestock protection while maintaining 60 miles of ranch fencing and cedar for fence material. The district distributed seed—Canada Wild Rye 130 lb, Texas Wintergrass 211 lb, Sand Lovegrass 10 lb, Indiangrass 3 lb—to cooperators last year.
