Description
From the hypothesis that each pasture species has a particular management-environmental niche to which it is best suited, it is suggested that an appropriate screening technique is to sow a range of species into the system of interest and let natural selection show species suitability. This is demonstrated in one trial in rangeland and another in developed pastureland.
