Product Catalog: Bulletin
Title:   Producing Marketable Products From Living Snow Fences  
 
Producer/Author:   Streed, E.; Walton, J.
Description:   This publication provides information to farmers about producing marketable products from living snow fences (LSFs). In addition to the benefits of snow control, erosion control, and wildlife habitat, LSFs can produce an "alternative" product that makes the land taken out of agricultural production profitable. The publication covers the benefits and perceived disadvantages of LSFs; designing a producing LSF system; and calculating profitable combinations. Included are tables of plants that produce marketable crops; per-acre establishment costs; and estimated maintenance costs for various species. For more information on designing successful LSFs, refer to Extension's technical guide 'Catching the Snow With Living Snow Fences', MI-07311.
