Grass Varieties for North Dakota
Grasses for the Northern Plains – Cool Season
Smooth Brome
Perennial cool season introduced grass good for use in areas of temporary flood, some salinity (Max Ph 5.5-7; EC 5-10) and high traffic. Make very palatable feed but not very productive overall. Invasiveness causes it to drive out other species and become sod-bound.
Recommended seeding rate of 6.5 to 8 pounds per acre. 3/8 inch seeding depth.
