However, with the depletion of the Ogallala aquifer and rising energy costs, other production systems are being considered. This study analyzed grazing scenarios with stocker steers grazing WW-B. Dahl bluestem pastures. The economic analysis included net returns from gain of grazing steers as a function of irrigation and fertilizer.  The highest returns were obtained when nitrogen fertilizer was applied on dryland WW-B. Dahl pasture.}, journal={Texas Journal of Agriculture and Natural Resources}, author={Dudensing, Jeffrey and Johnson, Jeffrey and Johnson, Phillip and Villalobos, Carlos}, year={2016}, month={Apr.}, pages={60–72} }
