APPENDIX 2: TREATMENTS USED IN 

 GROUND COVER EVALUATIONS 



Treatments and Levels 

 Fertilizer 



1 . None 



2. 250 lb/acre (280 kg/ha) of 16-20-0 

 Grass-legume seedings 



1 . None 



2. Grass and legume mixture seeded without straw 

 mulch 



3. Grass and legume mixture seeded with straw 

 mulch 



Shrubs planted 



1 . None 



2. Seven species' were used 



The above treatments were applied using all 12 combi- 

 nations and replicated once on one cut bank and twice 

 on two cut banks. One cut bank was east-facing and 

 the other two faced south. All of these cuts were along 

 the new road. Fertilizer treatment amounted to approxi- 

 mately 40 lb/acre (44.8 kg/ha) of available nitrogen 

 and 50 lb/acre (56 kg/ha) available phosphorus as a 

 one-time application. Twelve plots at each replication 

 were 27 to 48 feet (8.2 to 14.6 m) wide and length 

 went from the road to the top of the cut bank. Seeding 

 and planting were done in April and May 1974. No 

 fall seedings were used. Ground cover evaluations were 

 made in 1978 using a 7.9- by 19.7-inch (20- by 50-cm) 

 plot frame. Ten samples were taken on each plot to 

 obtain average cover for the plot. Analysis of variance 

 procedures were used to test for treatment differences.
