Abstract

A high percentage of the farm and range land of Morton County, Kansas, was seriously damaged by drouth and wind erosion in the early thirties. The federal government purchased 102,000 acres of that land to be revegetated to grass largely for grazing use. In this revegetation work many problems have been encountered in finding adapted grasses and in determining the best methods for their establishment. Very little experimental work had been done previously in grass reseeding in southwestern Kansas. This study is concerned with the results obtained from a series of seedings made during the period 1941-1945, inclusive, on the three most important problem areas of the county.
