Description
Lack of locally adapted native seed for restoration is a barrier to effective restoration of these burned lands and the habitat value they provide for many species, including sagebrush obligate greater sage-grouse. Encouraging greater production of locally adapted native seed is needed to address this restoration need, and one of the barriers to increased production is a lack of seeding, planting, harvesting, and cleaning equipment specialized for the diverse requirements of native seed. This proposal will create a native seed equipment network in nevada, which will purchase necessary specialized equipment and make IT available to potential growers of native seed for little to no cost. The walker basin conservancy is a non-profit member of the nevada native seed partnership working on native seed production and located in yerington, nevada, centrally located among several agricultural communities from which potential growers have shown interest. WBC will purchase, house, and maintain the equipment use equipment on its seed production fields develop systems necessary for lending equipment and publicize the native seed equipment network to potential growers who would use the specialized seed equipment as available.
