Slender Wheatgrass is a native, cool-season, perennial bunch grass that can be used for grazing, hay production, and reclaiming disturbed sites. It is adapted to elevations ranging from 4,500 to 12,000 feet. Slender Wheatgrass tolerates alkalinity up to pH 8.8 and salinity up to 16 mmhos/cm. It is palatable and nutritious for livestock and is one of the preferred wheatgrasses for elk and bighorn sheep at the higher elevations. It performs best for hay or pasture when grown with legumes. Although it only lives 4 to 5 years, Slender Wheatgrass is quick to establish and grows fast, making it an excellent component for reclamation mixes.
