Native Grass Seed Production
|
|
Environmental
restoration activities nationwide increasingly rely on the availability
of native plant materials. Planting with native species is
critical for the maintenance of biodiversity of plant and animal
communities and the protection of threatened and endangered species from
the adverse effects of invasive exotic plant species. Such
plantings are key components of riparian zone protection, wetland
enhancement, and erosion control. They provide important soil
stabilization and habitat enhancement features associated with livestock
management, road repair and decommissioning, and landslide
stabilization.
