The site appears to be an <br />old CRP parcel that was planted to non-native grasses. Dominated mainly by smooth brome, the area <br />has virtually no value to wildlife. The pasture is currently being grazed and surrounding lands are <br />mainly dry-land wheat tields. <br />Sincerely, <br />.~~. <br />Shane L.
