Warm-season grasses are plants that grow mostly from June through early September. They are well adapted to hot, dry weather, and will stay green in July and August, unlike the cool-season grasses that grow best in the spring and fall when soil and air tem-peratures are cooler.

Native, perennial warm-season grasses produce well compared to cool-season grasses during the hot and dry weather, on soils with low moisture holding capacity, low pH, and low phosphorus levels.
23 Μαΐ 2022 · Cool-season grasses are better able to tolerate frost, low light, and lower temperatures, while warm-season grasses have lower frost tolerance and higher light and temperature requirements. Warm-season grasses also require less water than cool-season grasses.
Native warm season grasses (NWSG) are plants that grow most vigorously during the late spring and summer; in contrast to the grasses many of us are more familiar with—orchardgrass, timothy brome, fescue, and bluegrass, which do most of their growth during the spring and fall.
Grasses are classified as warm- or cool-season based on their chemical pathways for photosynthesis. Warm-season grasses fix energy into 4-carbon units and are referred to as C4 grasses. As a result, their photo-synthetic potential is much higher than that of cool-season grasses. They make most of their active growth when minimum daily ...
1 Ιαν 2000 · Including native warm-season grasses in pasture systems makes good ecological sense, and this publication explores the benefits and challenges associated with their use. The uneven seasonal distribution of forage production from introduced cool-season species is a primary factor complicating pasture management, while native plant communities ...
Although warm-season grasses produce less yield, their virtue is to provide superior midsummer grazing when cool-season grasses are semi-dormant. Both types can be stockpiled during late summer and fall to provide maintenance energy for livestock during the winter months.
