UNITED STATES DEPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURE

STANDARD AND SPECIFICATION
CONSERVATION TILLAGE (Acre) 329
STANDARD
Definition
Any tillage and planting system in which at least 30 percent of the
soil surface is covered by plant residue after planting to reduce soil
erosion by water; or, where soil erosion by wind is the primary
concern , at least 1 ,000 pounds per acre of flat small grain residue—
equivalent are on the surface during the critical erosion period .
Purpose
To reduce soil erosion ; help maintain or develop good soil tilth ,
efficient moisture use , and water quality ; and provide food and cover
for wildlife .
Conditions where practice applies
On all cropland or on other lands where vegetation is to be
established or reestablished , and where adequate plant residues are
produced . Applies to rotations that include fallow periods as well as
systems of annual cropping .
Planning Considerations
1 . Leave crop residues standing as long as possible prior to the
succeeding crop to trap blowing snow, residue , and soil erosion by
wind and water.
2. This practice is most effective when carried out in conjunction
with other practices such as strip cropping, terracing and contour
farming .
3. Do not operate tillage equipment at the same depth each year .
4. Do not till soil that is too wet or over 70 percent of field
capacity to avoid excessive compaction.
5. Use approved herbicides for weed control in place of tillage when
appropriate .
(Page 1 of 6) TGN #231 (Rev . 4/68)
960226
6. Break up tillage pans, as needed, by chiseling or subsoiling to
penetrate restrictive layers for better root and moisture
penetration .
7. Continuous back—to—back planting of the same crop may lead to a
buildup of some disease organisms. Close monitoring should be
performed . Alternating crops can reduce disease problems.
8. Banding fertilizer below and to the side of the drilled seed
usually results in the highest use efficiency and reduces
availability to weeds . Fertilizer that is broadcast is equally
available to the crop and weeds .
9. Operate machinery at a speed that will not unduly pulverize the
soil or bury residue .
10. With a no—till system, develop a straw and chaff management
program to reduce plugging of drills, reduce allelopathic (toxic)
effects , improve herbicide activity , reduce rodent populations ,
and promote uniform stands of crops. Combines or other harvesters
should be equipped with straw and chaff spreaders to uniformly
distribute crop residue .
11 . Seed placement in conservation tillage is very important. Seed
must be placed at a uniform depth with the seed firmly in contact
with the soil . When needed , drills or planters can be equipped
with straw straighteners ahead of the openers to keep residue away
from the seed zone .
SPECIFICATIONS
A. To prevent erosion by water, a minimum of 30% of the soil surface
will be covered by residue after planting .
B. To prevent erosion by wind , maintain at least 1000 lbs of flat
small grain equivalent on the surface during the critical wind
erosion period .
C. The goal should be to reduce soil loss by water and wind toward
the loss tolerance established for that soil . Note : It is useful
to use the USLE and WEQ (not added) to determine how much residue
is needed to control erosion but because of the definition , the
307. cover or 1 ,000 lbs . of SGE is all that is needed to meet the
requirements of the practice .
(Page 2 of 6) TGN #231 (Rev . 4/88)
900226
Table 1 — A Guide for Approximate Residue Left After Each Operation
Approximate Residue
Left After Each Operation
Spraying (for chemical fallow) 100%
Undercutters , sweeps 24" or wider 90%
Drills , Disk 80%
Drills, Chisels 90%
Cultivators , 14" — 22" low 80%
crown shovels
Cultivator with 8" — 12" shovels , 80%
Rodweeder with shovels 85%
Chisel plow
Straight points 75%
Twisted points 50%
Tandem disc , one—way & offset disc
3" deep 30%
6" deep 10%
Moldboard plow 0-10%
Overwinter weathering 75-85%
Example : A field with 3,000 lbs. per acre residue . First trip:
cultivator with chisels , 3,000 lbs . x 75% = 2250 lbs . Second
trip : cultivator with chisels , 2250 lbs x 75% = 1687 lbs .
Following operations would continue to reduce the residue .
D. One of the following conservation tillage systems will be used :
1 . No—till or slot planting
The soil is left undisturbed prior to planting . Planting is
completed in a narrow seedbed approximately 1 to 3 inches
wide . Weed control is accomplished primarily with herbicides .
Residue from the preceding crop is to be retained on the soil
surface with the exception of that buried by the drill .
(Page 3 of 6) TGN #231 (Rev . 4/88)
900226
2. Ridge—till ( includes no—till on ridges)
The soil is left undisturbed prior to planting. Approximately
one—third of the soil surface is tilled at planting with
sweeps or row cleaners . Planting is completed on ridges
usually 4 to 6 inches higher than the elevation between the
rows . Weed control is accomplished with a combination of
herbicides and cultivation . Cultivation is used to rebuild
ridges .
3. Strip—till
The soil is left undisturbed prior to planting . Approximately
one—third of the soil surface is tilled at planting time .
Tillage in the row may consist of a rototiller, in—row chisel ,
row cleaners , etc . Weed control is accomplished with a
combination of herbicides and cultivation .
4. Mulch—till ( includes stubble mulching)
The total soil surface is disturbed by tillage prior to
planting. Tillage tools such as chisels , field cultivators,
discs , sweeps , or blades are used . Weed control is
accomplished with a combination of herbicides and cultivation.
5. Reduced—till I'
Any other tillage and planting system not covered above that
meets the 1000 lbs . flat small grain equivalent for wind
erosion control or 30 percent ground cover for water erosion
control .
E. On cropping sequences where tillage operations are permitted :
1 . Subsurface tillage equipment such as sweeps or rod weeders
should be used to keep the residue on the soil surface .
2. On soils that tend to crust, or have some slope , a chisel
operation across the slope may be needed after harvest to
increase water infiltration and reduce soil loss due to
runoff .
3. Chemicals may be used to aid in reducing or eliminating
tillage operations . Use manufacturers labels or Colorado
Pesticide Guide — Field Crops for specific rate
recommendations . The following options are recommended.
a. Fall sweep (4 inches deep) plus Atrazine . Fall sweep
immediately (within two weeks) after wheat harvest to kill
(Page 4 of 6) TGN #231 (Rev . 4/88)
910226
existing vegetation . Atrazine or Glean applied
immediately following fall sweep should control weeds
until the next planting season. An application of a
burndown herbicide such as Roundup or Paraquat may be
necessary if moisture does not become available to
activate the residual herbicides .
b . Apply a combination of non—selective contact or non—
residual herbicides (such as Paraquat or Roundup) plus
Atrazine , Banvel , or Glean to kill existing weeds and for
long—term control . Keep summer tillage operations to
those essential to control weeds .
c . Contact herbicide such as Paraquat plus Bladex , Igran or
other short residual (45-60 days) may be used for spring
application to eliminate early spring and early summer
tillage .
d . 2,4—D Butyl Ester plus Atrazine , Igran, or Bladex are
economical alternatives if approximately 90% of the fall
weeds are broadleaf .
F. For no—till cropping sequences:
1 . Conventional tillage operations will not be used to control
volunteer crop growth or annual forbs and grasses .
a. Wheat—fallow (chemical only) — Use of chemicals to
eliminate tillage operations . The following is required.
1 . Contact herbicides , such as paraquat or Roundup , plus
Atrazine , Glean or other residuals and tank mixes such
as Atrazine—Bladex and Atrazine—Igran shall be applied
immediately following harvest to kill existing weeds
and give long—term weed control .
2. A short residual herbicide may be used for spring
application if necessary to control weeds to
substitute for tillage operations normally used.
3. A slot or no—till planter or grain drill shall be used
that will disturb not more than 25% of the soil

3. Atrazine may be used in a wheat—sorghum—fallow or a
wheat—corn—fallow sequence following wheat harvest.
G. Farmers must be aware of the hazards involved in using residual
herbicides .
1 . Caution must be exercised in use of atrazine on soils with a
high pH and label directions need to be followed carefully .
2. Caution should be taken when applying long residual herbicides
annually so no overlap or carry—over effect of chemical
occurs .
3. Generally a minimum of 20 gallons of water, preferably 30,
will be needed to get adequate coverage of chemical .
4. For more uniform application, large volume sprayers with wide
stable boom coverage are preferred over small units with
narrow coverage . The wider swath should result in fewer
overlaps or skips . Dust should be held to a minimum as it
deactivates some herbicides . Nozzle spacing should greater
than 40 inches for uniform distribution .
H. Chemicals used in performing this practice must be registered
according to local regulations. They will be applied strictly in
accordance with other authorized federal , state, and local
regulation . Specific chemical recommendations shall be in

PASTURE AND HAYLAND MANAGEMENT (Acre) 510
STANDARD
•
Definition
Proper treatment and use of pastureland.
Purpose
To prolong life of desirable forage species, to maintain or improve the
quality and quantity of forage, to protect the soil, and reduce water loss.
Where applicable
On all pasture and hayland.
Planning Considerations
I. Fertilization
fi A. Fertilize to meet the needs of the plants or the economic objective of
the producer.
B. Specific fertilizer recommendations should be based on soil or tissue
analysis. General recommendations can be made using the following units
of fertilizer per ton of air dry material removed:
TG Notice #125 (Rev. 1) (Page 1 of 5) Colorado, SCS, April 1985

Lbs. 1/ Lbs. 2/ Lbs. 3/

legumes
1/ Organic matter is a major key to estimating available nitrogen.
Mountain regions of Colorado are high in organic matter, but
decomposition is extremely slow because of low temperatures. Soils of
the eastern slopes are low in organic matter, but decomposition is
rapid. This indicates that most pasture and haylands of Colorado will
respond to nitrogen in Proportion to the amount applied.
2/ In general, laboratory soil tests indicate adequate available phosphorus
for medium to high tonage of grass production. For grass-legume
mixtures or solid legume stands, a good response from P205 should
occur.
3/ Unless a laboratory soil analysis indicates the need for K2O, this
element should not be recommended due to the abundance of available
potassium present in most Colorado soils.
C. Nitrogen should be applied in split applications for improved
efficiency.
II. Rotation Grazing
A. Grazing units should be approximately equal in size. Small pastures may
be grouped to form a grazing unit within a system.
B. The grazing-recovery period should not exceed 30 days for optimum forage
quality.
C. When forage is grazed down to the minimum recommended height, cattle
should be moved.
D. Clio uneven growth down to the recommended height to prevent spot
grazing.
E. A one herd-three unit system furnishes a simple but adequate grazing
system. Crazing 7-10 days and resting 14-20 days is a good rule of
thumb.

III. Other Management Considerations

to a continuous reduction of food reserves in the roots.
B. Varying the ratio of nitrogen and phosphorus fertilizer can be used to
manioutate the ratio of grasses and legumes.
C. stocking rates vary with climate, soil, type of forage, available
moisture, and degree of management. Observation and local experience
are the best guides for determining stocking rates but the following can
be used for guidance.
1. Approximately 1 AOM per 1000 lbs. of air dried forage produced.
2. Non—irrigated pasture in Colorado (average year) produces 300-3500
lbs. per acre.
3. Irrigated pastures produce from 2000-16,000 lbs. per acre depending
on climate, management, and species present.
' D. After irrigation, a deferment period should be in effect to permit the
surface soil to dry out before grazing to avoid excessive compaction.
A minimum of three days on sandy soils, four days on loamy soils, and
five to six days on clay soils.

C. Pastures for special use:
Grasses such as Crested wheatgrass and Pubescent wheatgrass are commonly
used for early spring grazing until other forage is available.
Realizing that production on the pasture will be reduced, acceptable
management can be accomplished by heavy grazing for short periods during
the spring, followed by deferment the remainder of the year. During the
grazing period, sufficient growth should be left to protect the soil
from wind and water erosion. This provision will be restricted to apply
between April 1st and June 1st.
II. Required Management Considerations
A. Observe recommended grazing heights shown in Item I of these
specifications.
B. Practice weed control if weeds are significantly inhibiting the growth
of desirable species.
1. Chemical — Colorado Weed Control Handbook will be used for
recommendations.
2. Mechanical — Mow or shred weeds when they become significantly
taller than the desirable plants. Do not shred shorter than minimum
recommended harvesting heights.
C. Livestock water will be available in each grazing unit.
D. Rotation grazing is required on irrigated pastures unless the use is for
early spring grazing, fall grazing or other "Special use" acceptable to
the designated technician.

STANDARD AND SPECIFICATION
CONSERVATION TILLAGE (Acre) 329
STANDARD
Definition
Any tillage and planting system in which at least 30 percent of the
soil surface is covered by plant residue after planting to reduce soil
erosion by water; or, where soil erosion by wind is the primary
concern , at least 1 ,000 pounds per acre of flat small grain residue—
equivalent are on the surface during the critical erosion period .
Purpose
To reduce soil erosion; help maintain or develop good soil tilth ,
efficient moisture use , and water quality ; and provide food and cover
for wildlife .
Conditions where practice applies
On all cropland or on other lands where vegetation is to be
established or reestablished , and where adequate plant residues are
produced . Applies to rotations that include fallow periods as well as
systems of annual cropping .
Planning Considerations
1 . Leave crop residues standing as long as possible prior to the
succeeding crop to trap blowing snow, residue , and soil erosion by
wind and water.
2. This practice is most effective when carried out in conjunction
with other practices such as strip cropping, terracing and contour
farming .
3. Do not operate tillage equipment at the same depth each year.
4. Do not till soil that is too wet or over 70 percent of field
capacity to avoid excessive compaction .
5. Use approved herbicides for weed control in place of tillage when
appropriate .
(Page 1 of 6) TGN #231 (Rev . 4/88)
960226
6. Break up tillage pans , as needed, by chiseling or subsoiling to
penetrate restrictive layers for better root and moisture
penetration .
7. Continuous back—to—back planting of the same crop may lead to a
buildup of some disease organisms . Close monitoring should be
performed. Alternating crops can reduce disease problems.
8. Banding fertilizer below and to the side of the drilled seed
usually results in the highest use efficiency and reduces
availability to weeds . Fertilizer that is broadcast is equally
available to the crop and weeds .
9. Operate machinery at a speed that will not unduly pulverize the
soil or bury residue .
10. With a no—till system, develop a straw and chaff management
program to reduce plugging of drills, reduce allelopathic (toxic)
effects , improve herbicide activity , reduce rodent populations ,
and promote uniform stands of crops . Combines or other harvesters
should be equipped with straw and chaff spreaders to uniformly
distribute crop residue .
11 . Seed placement in conservation tillage is very important. Seed
must be placed at a uniform depth with the seed firmly in contact
with the soil . When needed , drills or planters can be equipped
with straw straighteners ahead of the openers to keep residue away
from the seed zone .
SPECIFICATIONS
A. To prevent erosion by water, a minimum of 30% of the soil surface
will be covered by residue after planting .
B. To prevent erosion by wind , maintain at least 1000 lbs of flat
small grain equivalent on the surface during the critical wind
erosion period .
C. The goal should be to reduce soil loss by water and wind toward
the loss tolerance established for that soil . Note: It is useful
to use the USLE and WEQ (not added) to determine how much residue
is needed to control erosion but because of the definition , the
30% cover or 1 ,000 lbs . of SGE is all that is needed to meet the
requirements of the practice .
(Page 2 of 6) TGN #231 (Rev . 4/88)
900226
Table 1 — A Guide for Approximate Residue Left After Each Operation
Approximate Residue
Left After Each Operation
Spraying (for chemical fallow) 100%
Undercutters , sweeps 24" or wider 90%
Drills , Disk 80%
Drills , Chisels 90%
Cultivators , 14" — 22" low 80%
crown shovels
Cultivator with 8" — 12" shovels , 80%
Rodweeder with shovels 85%
Chisel plow
Straight points 75%
Twisted points 50%
Tandem disc , one—way & offset disc
3" deep 30%
6" deep 10%
Moldboard plow 0-10%
Overwinter weathering 75-85%
Example : A field with 3,000 lbs . per acre residue. First trip:
cultivator with chisels , 3,000 lbs . x 75% = 2250 lbs . Second
trip : cultivator with chisels , 2250 lbs x 75% = 1687 lbs .
Following operations would continue to reduce the residue .
D. One of the following conservation tillage systems will be used :
1 . No—till or slot planting
The soil is left undisturbed prior to planting . Planting is
completed in a narrow seedbed approximately 1 to 3 inches
wide . Weed control is accomplished primarily with herbicides .
Residue from the preceding crop is to be retained on the soil
surface with the exception of that buried by the drill .
(Page 3 of 6) TGN #231 <Rev . 4/88)
260226
2. Ridge—till ( includes no—till on ridges)
The soil is left undisturbed prior to planting. Approximately
one—third of the soil surface is tilled at planting with
sweeps or row cleaners. Planting is completed on ridges
usually 4 to 6 inches higher than the elevation between the
rows . Weed control is accomplished with a combination of
herbicides and cultivation . Cultivation is used to rebuild
ridges .
3. Strip—till
The soil is left undisturbed prior to planting . Approximately
one—third of the soil surface is tilled at planting time .
Tillage in the row may consist of a rototiller, in—row chisel ,
row cleaners , etc . Weed control is accomplished with a
combination of herbicides and cultivation .
4. Mulch—till ( includes stubble mulching)
The total soil surface is disturbed by tillage prior to
planting . Tillage tools such as chisels , field cultivators,
discs , sweeps , or blades are used . Weed control is
accomplished with a combination of herbicides and cultivation.
5. Reduced—till
Any other tillage and planting system not covered above that
meets the 1000 lbs . flat small grain equivalent for wind
erosion control or 30 percent ground cover for water erosion
control .
E. On cropping sequences where tillage operations are permitted :
1 . Subsurface tillage equipment such as sweeps or rod weeders
should be used to keep the residue on the soil surface .
2. On soils that tend to crust, or have some slope , a chisel
operation across the slope may be needed after harvest to
increase water infiltration and reduce soil loss due to
runoff .
3. Chemicals may be used to aid in reducing or eliminating
tillage operations . Use manufacturers labels or Colorado
Pesticide Guide — Field Crops for specific rate
recommendations . The following options are recommended.
a. Fall sweep (4 inches deep) plus Atrazine . Fall sweep
immediately (within two weeks) after wheat harvest to kill
(Page 4 of 6) TGN #231 (Rev . 4/88)
900226
existing vegetation. Atrazine or Glean applied
immediately following fall sweep should control weeds
until the next planting season . An application of a
burndown herbicide such as Roundup or Paraquat may be
necessary if moisture does not become available to
activate the residual herbicides.
b . Apply a combination of non—selective contact or non—
residual herbicides (such as Paraquat or Roundup) plus
Atrazine , Banvel , or Glean to kill existing weeds and for
long—term control . Keep summer tillage operations to
those essential to control weeds .
c . Contact herbicide such as Paraquat plus Bladex , Igran or
other short residual <45-60 days) may be used for spring
application to eliminate early spring and early summer
tillage .
d . 2,4—D Butyl Ester plus Atrazine, Igran , or Bladex are
economical alternatives if approximately 90% of the fall
weeds are broadleaf .
F. For no—till cropping sequences:
1 . Conventional tillage operations will not be used to control
volunteer crop growth or annual forbs and grasses .
a. Wheat—fallow (chemical only) — Use of chemicals to
eliminate tillage operations . The following is required.
1 . Contact herbicides , such as paraquat or Roundup , plus
Atrazine , Glean or other residuals and tank mixes such
as Atrazine—Bladex and Atrazine—Igran shall be applied
immediately following harvest to kill existing weeds
and give long—term weed control .
2. A short residual herbicide may be used for spring
application if necessary to control weeds to
substitute for tillage operations normally used.
3. A slot or no—till planter or grain drill shall be used
that will disturb not more than 25% of the soil
surface .
b . Corn , sorghum, and small grains (chemical only) . Use of
chemicals to eliminate tillage operations in irrigated
cropland or annual cropping systems . The following is
required.
(Page 5 of 6) TGN #231 (Rev . 4/88)
9CO226
1 . A contact herbicide plus Bladex , Igran or other short
residual (45-60 days) may be used for spring
application if needed to control weeds to eliminate
early spring and early summer tillage.
2. A slot or no—till planter or adequate grain drill
shall be used that will disturb not more than 25% of
the soil surface .
3. Atrazine may be used in a wheat—sorghum—fallow or a
wheat—corn—fallow sequence following wheat harvest.
G. Farmers must be aware of the hazards involved in using residual
herbicides.
1 . Caution must be exercised in use of atrazine on soils with a
high pH and label directions need to be followed carefully .
2. Caution should be taken when applying long residual herbicides
annually so no overlap or carry—over effect of chemical

PASTURE AND HAYLAND MANAGEMENT (Acre) 510
STANDARD
Definition
Proper treatment and use of pastureland.
Purpose
To prolong life of desirable forage species, to maintain or improve the
quality and quantity of forage, to protect the soil, and reduce water loss.
Where applicable

Planning Considerations
I. Fertilization
vf A. Fertilize to meet the needs of the plants or the economic objective of
the producer.
B. Specific fertilizer recommendations should be based on soil or tissue
analysis. General recommendations can be made using the following units
of fertilizer per ton of air dry material removed:

1/ Organic matter is a major key to estimating available nitrogen.
Mountain regions of Colorado are high in organic matter, but
decomposition is extremely slow because of low temperatures. Soils of
the eastern slopes are low in organic matter, but decomposition is
rapid. This indicates that most pasture and haylands of Colorado will
respond to nitrogen in proportion to the amount applied.
2/ In general, laboratory soil tests indicate adequate available phosphorus
for medium to high tonage of grass production. For grass-legume
mixtures or solid legume stands, a good response from P205 should
occur.
3/ Unless a laboratory soil analysis indicates the need for K20, this
element should not be recommended due to the abundance of available
potassium present in most Colorado soils.
C. Nitrogen should be applied in split applications for improved
efficiency.
II. Rotation Grazing
A. Grazing units should be approximately equal in size. Small pastures may
be grouped to form a grazing unit within a system.
[ B. The grazing-recovery period should not exceed 30 days for optimum forage
quality.
C. When forage is grazed down to the minimum recommended height, cattle
should be moved.
D. Clio uneven growth down to the recommended height to prevent spot
grazing.
E. A one herd-three unit system furnishes a simple but adequate grazing
system. Crazing 7-10 days and resting 14-20 days is a good rule of
thumb.
TG Notice #125 (Rev. 1) (Page 2 of 5) Colorado, SCS, April 1985
900226
•
III. Other Management Considerations
A. Hay harvest should be based on the stage of growth. Continuous cutting
at an immature stage will cause the staid to deteriorate prematurely due
to a continuous reduction of food reserves in the roots.
B. Varying the ratio of nitrogen and phosphorus fertilizer can be used to
maniputate the ratio of grasses and legumes.
C. Stocking rates vary with climate, soil, type of forage, available
moisture, and degree of management. Observation and local experience
are the best guides for determining stocking rates but the following can
be used for guidance.
1. Approximately 1 AUM per 1000 lbs. of air dried forage produced.
2. Non—irrigated pasture in Colorado (average year) produces 300-3500
lbs. per acre.
3. Irrigated pastures produce from 2000-16,000 lbs. per acre depending
on climate, management, and species present.
• D. After irrigation, a deferment period should be in effect to permit the
surface soil to dry out before grazing to avoid excessive compaction.
A minimum of three days on sandy soils, four days on loamy soils, and
five to six days on clay soils.

9130226
C. Pastures for special use:
Grasses such as Crested wheatgrass and Pubescent wheatgrass are commonly
used for early spring grazing until other forage is available.
Realizing that production on the pasture will be reduced, acceptable
management can be accomplished by heavy grazing for short periods during
the spring, followed by deferment the remainder of the year. During the
grazing period, sufficient growth should be left to protect the soil
from wind and water erosion. This provision will be restricted to apply
between April 1st and June 1st.
II. Required Management Considerations
A. Observe recommended grazing heights shown in Item I of these
specifications.
A. Practice weed control if weeds are significantly inhibiting the growth
of desirable species.
1. Chemical — Colorado Weed Control Handbook will be used for
recommendations.
2. Mechanical — Mow or shred weeds when they become significantly
taller than the desirable plants. Do not shred shorter than minimum
recommended harvesting heights.
C. Livestock water will be available in each grazing unit.
D. Rotation grazing is required on irrigated pastures unless the use is for
early spring grazing, fall grazing or other "Special use" acceptable to
the designated technician.
