Predicting herbage mass of Phleum pratense L. pastures with a disk meter

Agricultural and Food Science, 1995
A simple disk meter was calibrated for predicting the herbage mass (HM) of rotationally grazed pastures dominated by Phleum pratense L. in 1991-1992. A total of 696 paired observations were made on disk height (DH) and HM > 4 cm.
