A long stemmed, weed ~ <br />free, native grass hay should be used to mulch the area and to <br />protect the flatter seeded areas from erosion. Hors steeply <br />sloping areas should be covered with fiber matting to protect <br />from erosion until the seeding is established. Phosphorous <br />fertilizer should be applied at a rate of 4D lbs. per acre <br />active ingredient. <br />On very steep slopes that will be seeded, the soil surface <br />should be left rough to slow the runoff and trap moisture. It <br />may be necessary to cut diversions or channels across the slope <br />to catch the excess water. Spacing of the channels will depend <br />on the degree of slope and the intensity of rain. <br />Seeding should be done in late fall or early spring. Seeded <br />areas should be fenced to exclude livestock for a minimum of two <br />years following seeding. <br />If you have any questions please feel free to call (223-0960) <br />Sincerely, <br />Frank R.
