Description
White clover is a valuable component of pasture (Thomson, 1978). The level of nitrogen fertilization and the method of pasture utilization (Mackenzie, 1982), as well as habitat conditions (Lenoble, 1975) have a decided effect upon the persistence of this species in the sward. However, the stability of white clover in the sward is a complex problem and further studies are required. This paper records changes in the species composition of pasture sward caused by sheep grazing with special reference to white clover.
