<br />This soil provides teildlife habitat, but is also suited
<br />to range, which provides limited grazing for sheep
<br />and cattle.
<br />The alkali, the lore rainfall, anti the droughtiness are
<br />the main concerns of management. Proper stocking
<br />protects the soil against deteriur;ilion. Fecause of the
<br />alkali and lou• rainfall, seeding is impractical and
<br />grasses generally do not gron•. Brush should nut be
<br />cleared because it protects the soil against soil blo+cing.
