Herbaceous vegetation establishment practices share many of the same considerations for designing a seeding plan such as site preparation, species selection, and seeding dates as well as determining if a nurse crop or fertilizer are needed. Agronomy Technical Note 31 provides the technical guidance for herbaceous vegetation establishment practices. This workshop is intended to primarily be a hands on working session during which participants will have the opportunity to work on several practice design exercises that apply the concepts found in Agronomy Tech Note 31. Participants will also practice using the seed calculator Excel spreadsheet to design, verify a vendor seed mix, and check out an installed seeding.
