Offered Papers Theme A: Efficient Production from Grassland
Description
Grasses with high levels of WSC have been shown to enhance livestock production (Miller et al., 1999). This has led to the development of perennial ryegrass (PRG) cultivars that can accumulate high levels of WSC. The aim of this experiment was to determine if the genetic potential to accumulate high levels of WSC was expressed under varying conditions.
