| Abstract | Are you searching for a native range plant that will produce abundant winter forage and livestock shelter and is also capable of producing a good yield of hay as an alternative use? If your ranch is in the bunchgrass region of the Northern Rocky Mountains and Northwest or in the Great Basin, then look no more. Basin wildrye (Elymus cinereus) is what you need. In Montana, Basin wildrye is found throughout the state, generally on flood plains or areas receiving additional moisture. It is tolerant of alkali soils. The mature plants may have a basal diameter of 2 to 3 feet with leaves up to 18 inches long. On very productive sites plants often reach a height of 6 feet. |
