Considering this year's dry
conditions, it is probably not a
good year for a prescribed burn.
In fact most of the area is under
a burn ban. Some CRP burning
has been allowed under
certain conditions.
For future, we hope wetter,
years we need to remember that
research and experience have
shown that fire can be used as a
major management practice for
native and introduced grass-
lands, hay meadows, and estab-
lishing and managing new native
grass stands. Fire can recycle
nutrients tied up in old plant
growth, stimulate tillering and
control many woody and herba-
ceous plants in an economical
manner.
Controlled burning can im-
prove grazing distribution, in-
creased livestock production,
reduce wildfire hazards and im-
prove wildlife habitat.
Proper timing is important
and some grazing deferment
