Author: Ricky Arnett

Planning Unit: Green County CES

Major Program: Forages

Plan of Work: Protecting Green County's Environment

Outcome: Long-Term Outcome

In 2019 the Department of Fish and Wildlife and the Natural Resource Conservation Service contacted me about partnering in a warm season grass project. They had maped out certain watersheds in Green County as focus points to start. This project was to intice farmers to use warm season grasses for pasture and hay. 

We started with one water shed located in the North East corner of the county.
