For Extension Purposes

Extension educators, consultants, and farmers/ranchers can benefit greatly by being able to identify common grasses and legumes. For the first time, learning to identify common forage plants can be exciting, encouraging, and effective. The Forage Identification CD-ROM is an interactive tool that helps learners become proficient in the skills of plant identification. Over 350 dazzling photographs combine with labeled drawings, carefully presented vocabulary, and precise methodology to help learners of all types identify common grasses and legumes.

The Forage Identification CD-ROM is more effective than plant reference books, more enjoyable than picture flashcards, more flexible than live plants, and teaches real skills which are not a part of plant taxonomies. Take the chore out of identification requirements of forage-related classes and jobs. Put the beauty back into grasses and legumes with the Forage Identification CD-ROM.

The Forage Identification CD-ROM includes: a glossary, web-linkage, seed ID, forage plants in different stages of maturity, close-up, full-plant, and field photographs, flashcard review, multiple choice review, over 350 photographs and 60 drawings, scientific and common names presented visually and auditorially.
