Management of lucerne in the cool season
(New Zealand Grassland Association., 1990)
The performance of dormant and winter-active
lucerne (Medicago sativa L.) cultivars was
compared under sheep grazing in 2 experiments
during the cool season. The objectives were to
define the cool season management ...
Effect of pasture species on internal parasites of lambs
(New Zealand Grassland Association., 1996)
Increasing resistance of gastro-intestinal nematode
parasites to anthelmintics and consumer resistance
to the possibility of residues in animal products
have prompted research on the effect of pasture
species on nematodes ...
Effects of plant density on seed yield in Caucasian clover (Trifolium ambiguum Bieb.) cv. Monaro
(New Zealand Seed Technology Institute on behalf of the International Herbage Seed Group, 1999)
A radial trial design was used to determine the effect of plant density on seed yield of Caucasian clover (Trifolium ambiguum Bieb.) cv. Monaro, and the seed yield response of twelve genotypes selected from within cv. ...
The relationship between applied nitrogen, nitrogen concentration in herbage and seed yield in perennial ryegrass (Lolium perenne L.). I. Cv. Grasslands Nui at five sites around the globe
(New Zealand Seed Technology Institute on behalf of the International Herbage Seed Group, 1998)
Potential environmental problems following the use of applied nitrogen (N) in cropping have resulted in research on indicators which attempt to ensure that the amount of N applied matches the specific requirements for the ...
Effect of time of fungicide application on the second harvest seed yield of five cocksfoot (Dactylis glomerata L.) cultivars
(New Zealand Seed Technology Institute on behalf of the International Herbage Seed Group, 1999)
The effects of time of fungicide application on seed yield and its components were determined for second harvest plots of three New Zealand (Grasslands Wanan, Grasslands Kara, Grasslands Tekapo) and two Japanese (Akimidori, ...
Long-term experiments in the South Island high country: an example from Mt. Possession, Canterbury
(New Zealand Grassland Association., 1994)
This paper discusses the successional changes that
have occurred during 13 years of a designed
experiment in short tussock grassland. The
‘experiment site is at Mt. Possession Station,
Canterbury and was established in ...
Comparison of pasture establishment from a conventional disc drill and a prototype strip seeder drill
(New Zealand Grassland Association., 1991)
Establishment of grasses and legumes drilled in
spring with a prototype strip seeder drill or a
conventional tripledisc drill were compared on two
sites in the presence and absence of paraquat. On
the Earnscleugh site, ...
The reproductive behaviour of individual plants from within Caucasian Clover (Trifolium ambiguum Bieb.) cv. Monaro
(New Zealand Seed Technology Institute on behalf of the International Herbage Seed Group, 1999)
Thirteen individual plants selected at random from a four year old field of Caucasian clover (Trifolium ambiguum Bieb.) cv. Monaro varied widely in their ability to flower and hence produce seed. Four of the plants failed ...
Development of mechanistic energy balance models for grassland
(Lincoln University, 1996)
Grasslands are responsible for a significant percentage of the world's food supplies and, due to their large geographical extent, have an important influence on global climate. Major determinants of grassland productivity ...
Winter, spring, and summer harvest management effects on the cut yield of dry matter and protein in irrigated Wairau lucerne
(Lincoln University, 1991)
A single season trial was carried out at Lincoln University, Canterbury, New Zealand, on a Wakanui silt loam, with cv "Wairau" lucerne under irrigation. Three management practices were examined in their various combinations: ...
