Recommended
primarily as a pasture mixture for semi-dry areas, especially for
the Dark Brown soil zone (#2). The Brome and Crested Wheatgrass
are long lived, high yielding pasture grasses that have excellent
grazing properties.

- Smooth Bromegrass is suitable for a variety of soil and climate conditions. It is best adapted to the moister parts of the Dark Brown, the Black and the Gray Wooded Soil Areas and the Irrigated Areas but will adapt to a wide range of growing conditions.
Smooth Bromegrass is winter hardy, fairly alkali tolerant and moderately tolerant of acid and saline soils.
Smooth Bromegrass is used extensively as a high yielding grass for both hay & pasture. It is a high producing grass for grazing; the majority of the production occurs in the spring and early summer, goes dormant during the summer, and some slow regrowth in late summer and fall.
Smooth Bromegrass is higher in protein and lower in energy than many of the other grass species at the same stages of maturity.
- Crested Wheatgrass is also very winter hardy & fairly tolerant to alkaline, saline and acidic soils, adapted to the Brown and Dark Brown soil areas.
Crested Wheatgrass is extremely drought tolerant but will tolerate short periods of spring flooding.
As Crested Wheatgrass starts growing early in the spring it makes good spring pasture and it is very tolerant of grazing, including early season grazing.
