grasses. for poorly drained or wet conditions. Garrison creeping foxtail is a good producer once <br />established, being both highly palatable and nutritious. <br />The species in Seed Mix #5 will function equally well for establishing the irrigated pasture type. <br />Grasses are dominant in the mix and the resulting stand will also be dominated by grasses. See <br />Mix #6 has Alsike Clover, Redtop and Timothy grasses. Alsike Clover is a nitrogen fixing legume <br />that is suited to irrigated, wet conditions. Redtop and timothy are rated "high" for cow, horse.and <br />elk feed preference. Feed preference has palatability, nutrition, total digestible nutrients and other <br />factors involve. In other words, livestock will readily go to Redtop -and Timothy grasses for feed. <br />Local ranchers and farmers are accustom to, have used and prefer theses grasses. They are also <br />suited to irrigated conditions. Seed Mix #7 has been revised to contain only alfalfa for the Irrigated <br />Cropland. tT e-r comme dedrlifal etie §have_ dank we(I.in tho, reg ort (T Doherty; personal <br />munication� Ap�ils198$) <br />Upon completion of the seeding operations, lands that are to be returned as irrigated pasture may <br />be irrigated using sprinkler irrigation.
