Commercial Wildland Harvested Seed and the Utah Connection

On The Ground
- The need for large-scale disturbed land rehabilitation in the west is well known but is recently receiving new attention.
- Seeding appropriate species, varieties, and ecotypes is often needed to succeed in rehabilitation of these degraded landscapes.
- Key people, organizations, and early and continuing research in Utah have been very influential in providing valuable information for degraded land rehabilitation.
- Seed from the key species and ecotypes provided by wildland seed harvests are a very important part of successful land restoration. The wildland seed industry developed in Utah and dominates the supply of wildland seed in western land restoration.
