Description
Currently used method of dry matter yield estimation was tested compared with yield estimation from cover measurement using clipped data as an index. The dry weight rank (DWR) method was able to show variations within and between sites in different seasonal conditions. However it was less accurate than other techniques and possibly subject to personal bias.
