Abstract

Excerpt from Summary: In connection with the establishment of live-stock industries on the northern reclamation projects, the use of irrigated pastures as summer feed is almost universally desired. The results secured by experimenters and practical farmers indicate that under favorable conditions and with proper care the stock-carrying capacity of an acre of well-established pasture should be not less than two cows or their equivalent in other live stock. To establish these pastures successfully requires good farming and close attention to details. Information which has been obtained during the past four years shows either that irrigated pastures are already successful or indicates that they can be made successful on the Huntley, Boise, Minidoka, Uncompahgre, Sunnyside, Tieton, Sun River, Lower Yellowstone, Shoshone, Belle Fourche, and North Platte reclamation projects
