Excerpt from Research Notes, 1966-1969: Nos. 76 to 150 Fringed sagebrush, a species thought to receive little grazing use, was especially im portant in the diets of cattle grazing native bunchgrass in early Spring (table Samples collected on May 25 and June 25, respectively, contained and percent fringed sage brush. Fringed sagebrush was the only indi vidual species that exhibited consistent trends in the samples. If the species was present in a particular grazing unit, it increased steadily in the diet from the first to the last sample collected in the unit. Samples were obtained from both fistulated steers grazing the same range only during the July 8 collection period on native bunchgrass range. It is evident from table 2 that the two animals selected forage quite Similar in botanical composition. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

of this research is to analyze the grazing habits of cattle and the dietary importance of fringed sagebrush on native bunchgrass ranges.** The study, conducted between 1966 and 1969, focuses on samples collected from cattle diets, specifically examining the presence and consumption of fringed sagebrush. The findings indicate that fringed sagebrush is a significant component of cattle diets, particularly in early spring, and its consumption increases steadily throughout the grazing period. The research also compares the forage selection of fistulated steers to ensure consistency in data collection.
