- Title: Effects of cattle trampling and mechanical seedbed preparation on grass seedling emergence
- Journal: Journal of Range Management
- Authors: V. K. Winkel, and B. A. Roundy
- Date: 1991
- Summary: Winkel and Roundy measured seedling densities, cover and species composition of native plants in plots exposed to mechanical seedbed preparation techniques (root plowing, land imprinting and ripping) prior to seed application and light or heavy cattle trampling (after seed application). Emergence of planted seedlings and native plants was strongly influenced by precipitation patterns and climactic conditions, which may be more important than seedbed preparation techniques in some years. However, in general, seedling emergence for most species was greatest in plots that were exposed to heavy ...

- Title: Effects of seedbed preparation and cattle trampling on burial of grass seeds
- Journal: Journal of Range Management
- Authors: V. K. Winkel, B. A. Roundy, and D. K. Blough
- Date: 1991
- Summary: Winkel et al measured seed burial and seedling emergence in plots exposed to mechanical seedbed preparation techniques (root plowing and ripping), prior to seed application and light or heavy cattle trampling (after seed application). Seeds were found at the greatest depths in plots exposed to heavy trampling, at intermediate depths in plots exposed to mechanical methods, and at shallow depths in plots exposed to light trampling. Seedling emergence was greater for seeds that were buried, as seeds that were left on undisturbed soil were washed away in summer thunderstorms. However, emergence ...
