About this Event
This project uses ruminant animals to help restore land that is populated by prairie dogs, invasive weeds, and brome grass. Study methods include bale grazing animals on sections of land to disturb the heavy thatch created by brome grass, adding nutrients to the soil through manure and urine, and preparing the land for native grass planting. With successful establishment of native grasses, this project creates a more drought resilient system that will require less water over time and a landscape containing prairie dog resistant plants.
