Schult.) is an introduced perennial bunchgrass that has become a favorite for seecling semiarid range lands because (a) successful seedings are more common with than with many other adapted species, (b) it is well adapted to semiarid environments and is strongly competitive when established, (c) it produces palatable and nutritious spring feed, and (d) it withstands heavy spring grazing. Tlae fourth point is, perhaps, most important.
