Permanent Irrigated Pasture Mixtures 
The planting of permanent pastures under irrigation in California 
is increasing rapidly. If you are contemplating a permanent pasture 
for your stock, select the mixture best suited to your soil from the

unable to recommend a satisfactory permanent pasture for dry land.
