Longevity of Crested Wheatgrass in the Sagebrush-grass Type in Southern Idaho

Abstract

Crested wheatgrass has proved to be well adapted on most sites in the sagebrush zone in southern Idaho. Continued high production as indicated in more than thirty-years records show crested wheatgrass will maintain itself and even spread despite such adverse factors as heavy use, extremes of temperature and moisture, and disease.
