| Description |
This status report provides a snapshot of uses for straw that is leftover from reduced bluegrass field burning in Washington. The information presented is primarily for use by members of the Straw Utilization Task Force, chaired by Director Jessernig, Department of Agriculture. It includes information on grower responses to reduced bluegrass field burning and possible future options and corresponding barriers. The baseline year for information is the harbest year 1998, with some of the research and interviews extending into mid-1999. As this report goes to print, some ongoing parts may already be seeing additional activity, particularly in the category of off-farm uses. |
