Future Needs From Intermountain Nurseries For Mine Reclamation

In past meetings of the Intermountain Nurserymen's Association, Richard L. Hodder, Senior Research Associate at Montana State University, discussed with you the research techniques that were being tested to improve the survival rate of trees and shrubs planted at major mining sites and roadsides in eastern Montana. I have prepared a short slide series of these techniques as a review to those who attended earlier meetings and as an introduction of our work for those who are unfamiliar with the problems of shrub and tree plantings on mine spoils. I will limit most of my talk to a discussion of shrubs and trees for sake of brevity and to be in line with your interests, but I will have a word to say about grasses since your program indicates that people who deal with the propagation of grasses will be in attendance.
