Description
Four lines of evidence are presented showing that, as for natural vegetations, there tends to be a linear relationship in developed grasslands between the logarithm of the proportion of different species in II sward and their rank order. These are: the Rothamsted Grass Park plots; the dry-weight-rank technique; published pasture composition data; and experimental mini-swards,
