[QUOTE="Wild Cattle, post: 800212, member: 7475"] bman, Native pasture is the same as Mesquite pasture, buffalo, grama, and bluestem grasses. Improved pastures in this area generally have been cleared, or are old crop ground, and have been worked and replanted. No irrigation needed. We have some planted in WW Spar and B-Dahl grass and the summer grazing on these pastures is very good. We plant wheat from the end of August through middle of October. It can be dry land or irrigated, it can be grazed from the time it gets up about 6" through the first of May on the average. Dry land wheat does not make every year. Some, myself included, are turning to a summer grazing crop on our wheat ground and running steers in the summer instead of grazing wheat over the winter. We are planting BMR Sudan or a mix of hay grazer, beardless wheat, barley, and Rye. We do have some irrigated coastal pastures in this area, they do well but the costs of irrigation are high.
