Cheat Grass hasn’t helped that cycle any, and it was one of the reasons I signed a grazing lease on my section shortly after buying it. It’s mostly in my canyon, with the slopes still showing pretty good bunch grasses and gobs of sage.

True indeed! I have some friends who are working on a project in Oregon that indicates late season grazing of wetted cheat (to soften the seed) seems to help a great deal. As a grass, it does have somewhat higher protein content.
