Bio/historical note: From 1967 to 1972, plant ecologists at the University of Saskatchewan participated in the International Biological Program (IBP). As part of this worldwide study of agricultural productivity, ecologists established the Matador field station near Kyle for grassland research carried out by scientists from thirty-four countries. The Matador Project involved the study of the total grasslands ecosystem,including the interaction of animals, plants, microorganisms, soils and the atmosphere.
