Where blue stem, Indian grass, switchgrass or gramma grass is available in fairly heavy stands and well seeded, it is a crop well worth harvesting.

One is the decreased harvest possibili ties in the drought area to the south and the increased demand due to the cross compliance on acreage allotments.
