COMPARING THE OUTPUT FROM MIXTURES BASED ON PERENNIAL RYEGRASS AND ON MEADOW FESCUE

View through CrossRef
Herbage and livestock production from swards based on meadow fescue and on perennial ryegrass were measured over three years. The meadow fescue mixture had no practical advantages in terms of either annual output or seasonal distribution of production. This may have been due to inefficient methods of measurement or may have been peculiar to the management imposed, but it is considered that it was due to the depressing effects of timothy and cocksfoot on the meadow feseue.
