EROSION CONTROL

Nevada County Farm Supply has developed various mixes to control soil erosion in the Sierra Nevada foothills. The grasses and legumes in these mixes have different characteristics that allow options for landowners. We carry mixes are distinguished by elevation ranges, there is some overlap in the transition zone from the foothills to the mountains. Basic Erosion Mix is made up of 40% annual rye grass, 40% UC937 barley, 10% crimson clover and 10% hykon rose clover. Foothill Mix is a blend of blando brome, hykon rose clover, zorro annual fescue and inoculants. Annuals will dye off in the summer but have an excellent reseeding vigor. This has been the Nevada County erosion control standard for over 25 years.
