- W2282758596 abstract "The old question of which came first-the hen or the egg-is still open to conjecture, but it is not hard to determine whether the cow or the grass came first. The difficult problem is to teach which grass came first-and why. These are the words of Clarence Bunch, Oklahoma Extension Range Specialist. who says the pioneer practice of taking everything away and returning nothing is still common in many areas and has been just as prevalent on ranches as on cultivated land in this state. As a result, millions of acres of virgin prairie support only a small percent of the livestock they once did. In Okla.homa, subclimax grasses and undesirable weeds have appeared on more and more ranges, until now, less than half a century after statehood, it is unusual to find properly managed grasslands. Oklahoma extension specialists early recognized these facts and set about to develop an educational program of range management that would have practical application on farms and ranches as well as in the classroom. After reviewing extension range work in several states and incorporating ideas gleaned from previous experience, the specialists designed a scientific met,hod of teaching practical pasture and range management. Based on the contest method of stimulating learning by competition, it utilizes fundamental knowledge of land capability classes, native grasses and range management practices. The contests, similar to livestock judging in that classes consisting of four fields or pastures are used for comparison, have been especially successful in rural youth training. They have greatly simplified teaching of grassland conservation for county agents and vocational agriculture instructors in this state. The average Oklahoma 4-H member is only 13 years old, and even though the score cards alone are effective teaching aids, added interest generated by competition cannot be duplicated in classroom teaching for youths this age. Originators of pasture and range judging were looking forward to the time that 4-H and FFA club members of today would be the custodians of our agricultural resources. Recognizing that knowledge of pot’ential production of the land and different range plants are basic to understanding good range management, they developed score cards based on those factors." @default.
