Deferred grazing to enhance white clover content in pastures

open access: yesNZGA: Research and Practice Series, 1996
During the early 1990s declining milk yields on coastal Bay of Plenty farms, against wider district trends, was attributed to pasture clover deficiency. To investigate possible causes pasture herbage yield, species composition, white clover growing point density and N-fixation activity were measured on two coastal Bay of Plenty dairy pastures over two ...

Decades of Enclosure Protection Exert Composite Effects on Grassland Grasshopper Communities

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Decades of enclosure protection have altered grasshopper community structure, with species‐specific effects on population dynamics. For the low‐mobility grasshopper Chorthippus fallax, abundance did not differ strongly between exclosure‐protected and overgrazed areas, but its egg development duration was longer in exclosures. The two C.
