Description

This paper commences with brief reference to points made in the concluding paper at the XVI International Grassland Congress in Nice in 1989 (Wilkins, 1989) and then gives consideration in turn to technical advances reported in the Congress and to the future socio­ economic situation and its impact on research priorities. This is inevitably a personal view which does not give justice to the 800 or so papers presented at the Congress.
