Straw is used in many of these projects as mulch to enhance seed germination, retain ground moisture, and prevent soil erosion.
When healthy agricultural, timber, and rangelands are infested by noxious weeds it causes a major economic impact. These weeds can also negatively impact wildlife and native plants by invading healthy watersheds.
By using EOCS's certified noxious weed free forage, you will be defending both our economy and our ecosystem from harmful noxious weeds.
