Native Grass Still Key In Franklin County Pastures

Franklin County holds 110000 acres of grassland with 83000 native and 28000 tame. District Conservationist Weickert favors native pasture as cheap grazing and cites 10 to 12 acres per cow and calf to sustain year round grazing. Overgrazing has left 64000 native acres needing treatment, including 17000 to be deferred and 9000 reseeded, with brush control needed.
