Abstract

Excerpts from the report: Recommendation 1: The task force recommends protection and production research be distributed among 38 specific objectives within the production RPAs. The recommended research will provide needed technology to increase efficiency in forage, range, and pasture production, as well as improved techniques for maintaining and restoring the range and pasture resource. Recommendation 2: Utilization and marketing research represents a comparatively small proportion of the total effort on forage and pasture crops. There are good opportunities, however, to improve the quality of processed forage products and to expand domestic and foreign markets for these products and forage seed. Recommendation 3: Many forage, range, and pasture problems can be solved only through well integrated, interdisciplinary research. Although this need is identified in the preface, the task force felt that these complex research problems should be emphasized in a specific recommendation. In implementing this report special attention should be given to developing regional centers of excellence for forage, range, and pasture research.
