Adequate Water for Uniform Grazing Emphasized by SCS Official
Glen Green of the local Soil Conservation Service stresses adequate livestock water for uniform grazing. He notes livestock should travel about half a mile in rough terrain and up to two miles on flat land, with ponds limited to 50 animal units annually and 20 gallons per unit daily. Evaporation losses exceed six feet yearly. He outlines pond site factors to offset evaporation in the Runnels district.

Pond Design Guidelines for Erosion Prevention and Water Supply
The guidance emphasizes a small surface area relative to depth with at least 25 percent of water at 10 feet depth, a drainage area large enough for adequate runoff, and a properly designed spillway on erosion resistant material. Slopes should be grassed to prevent erosion, and where possible both spillway and pond should be fenced with water piped to a trough to curb overuse and protect the area.

Suitable species include arborvitae Arizona cypress eastern redcedar and shortleaf pine though Douglas fir and Scotch pine may not survive in Texas. Ensure roots do not dry, water leaders daily, and plant in a hole larger than the root ball as soon as possible after Christmas. Contact local county agents for species guidance.
