Native, warm season, perennial bunch grass. Because of low productivity, this grass is seldom a key management species.  Engineers have started specifying small amounts in roadside seed mixes.
Uses
Hooded windmillgrass is grazed moderately by all livestock and the forage quality is fairly high.  The amount of forage produced is relatively low compared with that of taller growing associated grasses.  It provides fairquality forage during the winter, but should be supplemented with a protein concentrate.
