Description
This NRCS-led tour will demonstrate the effects of an April 2024 prescribed burn for the control of Eastern Red Cedar encroachment and to promote native grasses for improved pasture forage. Rod Voss, NRCS Range Management Specialist, will lead the walk as we identify various native grasses and wildflowers. We are also promoting our newly-formed Southeast Dakota Prescribed Burn Association and the increased use of safe prescribed burns.
