Event Title
Site Effects on the Composition of Multi-Species Grass/Legume Mixtures During Sward Establishment
Description
Under the auspices of COST Action 852, a multi-site experiment investigated issues of community structure, function and their interrelationships in multi-species grass/legume mixtures (Collins et al., 2004; Sebastià et al., 2004). We describe the effects of 2 contrasting sites on forage yield and species composition during sward establishment.
