Native Warm-Season Grasses: Research Trends and Issues

Bys: Moore, Kenneth J. and Anderson, Bruce E.

Including native warm-season grasses in pasture systems makes good ecological sense, and this publication explores the benefits and challenges associated with their use. The uneven seasonal distribution of forage production from introduced cool-season species is a primary factor complicating pasture management, while native plant communities are more efficient at capturing solar radiation.
