Abstract Objectives of this study were to determine differences in
herbage production of three seral stages of three habitat-types.
Field studies were conducted in 1967 and 1968 on the Squaw Butte
Experimental Range.
Twelve, 400-square-foot, paired exclosures were established
in each habitat-type. Herbage was clipped from four, 48-squarefoot
samples in one of each of the paired exclosures in 1967 and in
the other paired exclosure in 1968. Herbage weights were used to
determine production. Classification of habitat-types and determination
of seral stages were discussed relative to production data collected.
