Establishment, annual yield and nitrogen response of eight perennial grasses in a high country environment

Fasi, V.; Mills, Annamaria; Moot, Derrick J.; Scott, Warwick R.; Pollock, Keith M. (New Zealand Grassland Association., 2008)
An experiment was established within the Lees Valley (400 m a.s.l.), Canterbury out of low producing, browntop dominant grassland. The aim was to quantify dry matter (DM) production of improved perennial grasses in relation to temperature and nitrogen inp ...
Natural resources for Canterbury agriculture

Moot, Derrick J.; Mills, Annamaria; Pollock, Keith M. (New Zealand Grassland Association., 2010)
This plenary paper was presented as an introduction to the Canterbury region at the combined 2010 conference for the New Zealand Grassland Association, New Zealand Agronomy Society, Australian Agronomy Society and New Zeland Soil Science Society held at L ...
On-farm comparision of pasture production in relation to rainfall in central Otago

Kearney, J. K.; Moot, Derrick J.; Pollock, Keith M. (New Zealand Grassland Association, 2010)
Dry matter (DM) yields of unimproved resident browntop-dominant pasture on three Central Otago dryland farms was <1.5 t /ha/year from 2008-2010. An intensive pasture renewal programme over >18 000 ha applied lime to increase soil pH to ≥5.8 and reduce alu ...
Plant population, yield and water use of lucerne sown in autumn at four sowing rates.

Moot, Derrick J.; Pollock, Keith M.; Lewis, Bradley S. (New Zealand Grassland Association., 2012)
Successful establishment of lucerne requires an adequate plant population to maximise yield and maintain stand persistence. The impact of autumn sowing lucerne at four sowing rates was investigated in a split-plot experiment at Lincoln University, Canterb ...
Yield and water use of temperate pastures in summer dry environments

Moot, Derrick J.; Brown, H.; Pollock, Keith M.; Mills, Annamaria (New Zealand Grassland Association., 2008)
The water use efficiencies (WUE) of a range of temperate pasture species were calculated from measurements on several different dryland and irrigated pastures in Canterbury. The annual WUE ranged from 6.7 kg DM/ ha/mm for a dryland cocksfoot pasture to 40 ...
Clover species cover on summer dry hill country in Central Otago

Power, David R.; Pollock, Keith M.; Lucas, D.; Moot, Derrick J. (New Zealand Grassland Association., 2006)
The prevalence of annual clover species and white clover (Trifolium repens) during the critical late winter to early summer period (mid Aug – Dec) are compared in relation to aspect, altitude, temperature and rainfall on Mt Grand at Hawea Flat. Measuremen ...
How does defoliation management impact on yield, canopy forming processes and light interception of lucerne (Medicago sativa L.) crops?

Teixeira, Edmar I.; Moot, Derrick J.; Brown, H. E.; Pollock, Keith M. (Elsevier, 2007)
The frequency of defoliation is the major management tool that modulates shoot yield and the accumulation of C and N root reserves in lucerne crops. A fully irrigated, two year old lucerne (Medicago sativa L.) crop was grown at Lincoln University (43°38 ...
