Urine patches in cocksfoot pastures under radiata pine trees indicate severe N deficiency
(Lincoln University. Faculty of Agriculture and Life Sciences., 2004)
The dynamics of sheep urine patches were measured for two years on grazed cocksfoot dominant pastures grown under 10-11 year old radiata pine.
Net photosynthesis rate and chlorophyll content of Caucasian and white clover leaves under different temperature regimes
(Lincoln University. Faculty of Agriculture and Life Sciences., 2005)
Caucasian or kura clover (Trifolium ambiguum) was more productive than white clover (Trifolium repens)in New Zealand pastures. Examining the physiological basis for this difference can provide greater insight into the ...
Nitrogen fixation by subterranean and white clovers in dryland cocksfoot pastures
(New Zealand Grassland Association., 2010)
The amount of nitrogen (N) in clover dry matter (DM)
herbage derived from N fixation in subterranean or
white clover was estimated using the ¹⁵N enrichment
technique in a dryland grazing experiment at Lincoln
University. ...
Dryland pasture yields and botanical composition over 5 years under sheep grazing in Canterbury
(New Zealand Grassland Association., 2008)
Annual dry matter (DM) production and botanical
composition of six dryland pasture combinations, grown
under sheep grazing at Lincoln University for 5 years,
are presented. In 4 years, lucerne produced the highest
DM yields ...
Urine patches indicate yield potential of cocksfoot
(New Zealand Grassland Association., 2002)
Dry matter (DM) production and crude protein (CP%)
of sheep urine patches in a grazed cocksfoot pasture (28
day rotation with 21±1 days regrowth) were measured
at Lincoln University from September 1999 to May
2001. Also, ...
Sowing strategies for slow-establishing pasture species on a North Otago dairy farm
(New Zealand Grassland Association., 2000)
Slow-establishing, high quality, pasture species
are frequently added to standard ryegrass–white
clover seed mixtures in an effort to improve pasture
nutritive value. However, intense competition
during establishment can ...
Cocksfoot and lucerne productivity in a Pinus radiata silvopastoral system: a grazed comparison
(New Zealand Grassland Association., 2001)
Plant and animal production from cocksfoot pasture
and lucerne under 10–11 year-old radiata pine
trees (200 stems/ha) and from adjacent open
pastures (without trees) were measured from the
Lincoln University Silvopastoral ...
Seedling development and growth of white clover, caucasian clover and perennial ryegrass grown in field and controlled environments
(New Zealand Grassland Association., 2002)
Autumn sowing on 4 February (SD1) and 31 March
(SD2) 2000 was used to compare the establishment
success of white and caucasian clovers sown with 0, 3,
6 or 12 kg seed/ha of perennial ryegrass. Total dry matter
(DM) production ...
Legumes for hill country
(Lincoln University., 2012-04-03)
The booklet presents the preliminary results of a TIFF funded “MAXClover’ dryland hill country legume experiment at Clarence Bridge, Marlborough. It also includes a practical guide to on-farm management for direct grazed ...
Grazing management for regeneration of balansa clover in a cocksfoot pasture
(New Zealand Grassland Association., 2008)
‘Bolta’ and ‘Frontier’ balansa clover seedlings were
counted through two autumns following a large seed set
in November 2006, from monocultures sown in a dryland
environment in Canterbury. Following rain on 5 January
2007, ...
