Regarding my response to the
grass seeding question, my mistake. My example was based on conifer seeding, not grass seeding. The end result probably boils down to equipment time anyway, so the numbers are still in the ball park. Yes, the gov't spends more on the land then the land is worth, in effect, subsidizing the delusions of the greens. Did you catch the article on the Sierra's in which the regional forester stated that the USFS was spending up to $1,000/acre on fuel reduction? Totally unsustainable don't ya think?
Yep, the USFS gave golden handshakes to their most experienced and capable personnel; and although those folks are glad they left, it breaks their hearts to see what is happening to the land that they spent their entire careers taking care of...sigh.
OK, that makes more sense. I coudln't envision how areal grass seeding wouldn't work.
