Leymus condensatus also commonly referred to as [2] Canyon Prince is a type of wild rye that is part of the Poaceae (Grass Family). It grows in bunches or clumps, a bunch grass, stays green all year, and has a distinctive silver blue foliage.
Lolium perenne, common name perennial ryegrass, [1] English ryegrass, winter ryegrass, or ray grass, is a grass from the family Poaceae. It is native to Europe, Asia and northern Africa, but is widely cultivated and naturalised around the world.
It is the principal grazing grass in New Zealand where some 10 million kilograms of certified seed are produced every year. There is a large range of cultivars . The primary species found worldwide and used both for lawns and as a forage crop is perennial ryegrass ( Lolium perenne ).
Of California's total plant population, 2,153 species, subspecies, and varieties are endemic and native to California alone, according to the 1993 Jepson Manual study. [4] This botanical diversity stems not only from the size of the state, but also its diverse topographies , climates, and soils (e.g. serpentine outcrops ).
Woody plants, shrubs or trees may occur on some grasslands—forming savannas, scrubby grassland or semi-wooded grassland, such as the African savannas or the Iberian deheza. [17] As flowering plants and trees, grasses grow in great concentrations in climates where annual rainfall ranges between 500 and 900 mm (20 and 35 in). [18]
Each grazing impacted on the subsequent quality of the pasture grown [15] The original pasture wedge graph concept attempted to include a number of rotational grazing concepts. e.g. Graze the longer pasture first, don't let the longest pasture exceed 15–25 cm, allocated pasture area so that the dairy cows graze to a residual of 1500kgs DM/ha ...
The results show that planting more pounds per acre of rye increased the cover crop's production as well as decreased the amount of weeds. The same was true when scientists tested seeding rates on legumes and oats; a higher density of seeds planted per acre decreased the amount of weeds and increased the yield of legume and oat production.
The 2011–2017 California drought persisted from December 2011 to March 2017 [1] and consisted of the driest period in California's recorded history, late 2011 through 2014. [2] The drought wiped out 102 million trees from 2011 to 2016, 62 million of those during 2016 alone. [ 3 ]
