Which one of the two pictures
would you like to say was made
on your property? Spring is fast
approaching, and it is a time
when high intensity rains can be
expected causing severe ero-
sion. The picture on the left
shows the force which high
amounts of runoff have and use
to wash away your soil. The
picture on the right shows a
properly designed and managed
waterway which will control the
wild soil robbing water.
Now is the time to be building
waterways if you need one. The
local S.C.S. will be glad to
furnish technical assistance to
properly design the waterway.
After the design is completed, a
contractor will shape the eroded
area to make a level bottom.
After shaping, the waterway
will be seeded to establish a
cover to hold the soil. Some ex-
cellent grasses to plant in
waterways include these: coas-
tal bermudagrass, native ber-
mudagrass, King Ranch blue-
stem, and western wheatgrass.
Once a waterway is established,
it does not only aid in erosion
control, but also adds to the
beauty of your property. Water-
ways also are good wildlife
habitat areas, providing food
and protection for game birds
THIS
and animals.
Management is a key to a
good waterway. They should be
protected from overgrazing,
automobile traffic and fires. The
S.C.S. has more information on
proper grazing of different
grasses planted in waterways.
It is your decision whether to
let excessive runoff steal your
land or to control the thief.
