Crested wheat grass aids Great Plains grazing recovery
Russian bred crested wheat grass from the steppe of Russia is transforming the northern Great Plains from desert threat to valuable grazing land. It anchors soils against droughts and cold, supports early growth, and is now promoted in the western spring wheat belt under crop protection programs. Over 5.5 million acres have been planted, with potential for 20 million more. The grass thrives in cold climates, is drought resistant, and suits elevations below 5,000 feet except in the Dust Bowl region. Most seed acreage is in Montana, North Dakota, Oregon, Washington, and Idaho, with about 200,000 acres grown for seed, mainly in Oregon and Washington.

Grasshopper bait materials including bran and sodium arsenite are in adequate supply at the County Shed in Parowan and the Town Hall in Paragonah to combat the grasshopper problem this season.
