Abstract
This hydroseeding report is based upon detailed telephone surveys of 44 Iowa Integrated Roadside Management Program counties that utilize hydroseeding to seed natives in right-of-ways. The phone survey questionaire encompassed all aspects of county hydroseeding, including questions associated with equipment types, techniques, seeding rates. Respondents were asked about their use of natives and nurse crops, hydroseeding personnel involved in these efforts, types and rates of mulch used, bad hydroseeding experiences and finally, tricks of the trade. This summary report also contains detailed information from 10 counties that were selected for a site visit by UNI staff in July 2012, based upon unique hydroseeding methods revealed during the telephone survey. While in the each county, two hydroseeded plantings were visited and assessed.
