This book was released on 2018-09-14 with total page 412 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Common Grasses, Legumes and Forbs of the Eastern United States: Identification and Adaptation presents photographic identification of the most important grassland, turf, and noncrop plants, and their seeds to facilitate quick identification in the field. Unlike many publications that focus solely on floral identification, this book emphasizes vegetative identification as well to allow for accurate plant identification year-round. The book includes 23 forage legumes, 61 grasses, and more than 100 nonleguminous forbs found in pastures and grasslands of Eastern United States. In addition to identification of important species, the book describes other key characteristics such as adaptation, favorable and unfavorable soil types, seasonal growth patterns, and toxicity. For plants harvested for hay or silage or by grazing, the book also discusses cutting and grazing management, quality factors, and potential yields. Through its practical approach and comprehensive structure, Common Grasses, Legumes and Forbs of the Eastern United States is a valuable reference for farm advisors, teachers and students of agronomy, and for anyone interested in the dynamic relationship between plants and agriculture. - Features full-color illustrations of both seed and plant, allowing for rapid identification at multiple stages of development - Presents various identification methods and use cases for over 180 plants - Details seasonal growth patterns and toxicity, as well as favorable and unfavorable soil types - Discusses cutting and grazing management

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Use of Vegetation for Erosion Control in Mountain Meadows Stakes should be cut and planted when the Willows are dormant. This period extends from the time the leaves start to turn yellow in the autumn until the time when growth starts in the spring. In.moist soils, willow stakes can sometimes be successfully planted during the summer season, but in general this should not be attempted.

Download or read book Section 32 Program Streambank Erosion Control Evaluation and Demonstration Work Unit 4 research on Soil Stability and Identification of Causes of Streambank Erosion written by Jessie C. Oldham and published by . This book was released on 1979 with total page 40 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This investigation clearly indicated the advantages of using spray-on stabilizers on denuded slopes until vegetation becomes established. Three of the materials tested, Aerospray-70, Soil Seal, and DLR, were effective in establishing vegetation. These materials showed no adverse effect on germination. Bermuda grass in these sections emerged and propagated better than that in the control plot. Aerospray-70 and Soil Seal were the most effective in controlling soil erosion during the test period. The plant emergence and growth rate using Peneprime and Nerozin were below that obtained in the control plot. In conclusion, it is recommended that Aerospray-70 and Soil Seal be incorporated into some of the Section 32 Program demonstration projects for field testing. It is also recommended that spray-on stabilizers be considered for general use to inhibit erosion while enhancing plant emergence and early growth. General guidelines for application of spray-on stabilizers are given in Appendix A; further studies on various types of soils subject to different conditions may show more effective application procedures.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Clean Water Act mandates the implementation of approved best management practices (BMPs) in all states to control non point source pollution. Water control and revegetation BMPs are commonly used to control erosion and sedimentation from forest roads. The main objective of this study was to assess the adequacy of broad-based dip construction and vegetation establishment. In 2006, 19 gravel haul roads with broad-based dips in the Monongahela National Forest, West Virginia were examined to determine if they adhered to Forest specifications for cut depth and dip outslope. Data on the azimuth, contributing road lengths, slopes of the contributing lengths, landscape position of the dips, wheel track depths and soil texture of the road bed materials also were recorded to identify variables that explained variation in cut depth and dip outslope. Only about 22 percent of the dips met allowable cut depth specifications, and just over half of the dip slopes met the 2-5 percent outslope specifications. Cut depth was explained primarily by road geometry variables, suggesting that proper construction is important to ensure the dip impedes longitudinal drainage down the road while remaining traversable. Dip slope was affected by environmental and use variables, so maintenance during and following use is critical to ensure proper short- and long-term drainage. Vegetative growth along the entire cutbank of Forest Service road 973 within a managed watershed in the Left Fork of Clover Run on the Cheat District of the Monongahela National Forest in Tucker County, West Virginia was monitored from 2004 through 2006 using photograph analysis. Four sets of photographs were taken over the three years, two of which were taken in 2005 before and after timber harvesting. Percent vegetation establishment along the cutbank for each year was calculated to determine if there were significant differences in vegetative cover over time. Aspect and cutbank slope also were examined to determine if they influenced vegetation establishment. Cutbank slope was not a significant variable, but aspect was. South-facing aspects had significantly less vegetative cover than NE-, E-, WNW-, and NW-aspects. Timber felled onto the cutbank and poor initial seed establishment had a significant effect on vegetation establishment. Trees felled onto the cutbank and road can be deleterious to established vegetation, thus, trees slated for harvest that could impact the road prism should be removed before seeding, or directionally felled away from the road prism. Additionally, if vegetation on cutbanks is not established, soil should be mulched and vegetation coverage should be monitored.
