Evaluation of dry-weight-rank and microscopic point techniques for seasonal botanical analysis of two pasture mixtures

Creator:

Bauer, Welby

Abstract:

This study was undertaken to evaluate the dry-weight-rank and microscopic point methods for determining botanical composition on perennial ryegrass (Lolium perenne L.) - subclover (Trifolium subterraneum L.) and tall fescue (Festuca arundinacea Schreb.) - subclover pasture mixtures throughout a grazing season. Botanical composition was determined on a monthly basis from...
