Offered Papers Theme A: Efficient Production from Grassland
Description
Mixtures of grass and legume species are commonly used in sown grasslands. Mixtures have been shown to be favourable for stable production over cycles and years due to a succession of species over time (Mosimann & Charles, 1996 ; Nie et al, 2004). However, little is known whether the genetic variation in pure stands has an influence on the agronomic value and its variation over seasons.

Agronomic Value of Mixture of Perennial Rye-Grass Cultivars: Preliminary Results
Mixtures of grass and legume species are commonly used in sown grasslands. Mixtures have been shown to be favourable for stable production over cycles and years due to a succession of species over time (Mosimann & Charles, 1996 ; Nie et al, 2004).
