Abstract
1. Twenty-one varieties of pasture grasses, including ten bred varieties, were grown on fertile soil for 3 years. Figures are presented of the rate of production of herbage cut every 3or4 weeks. Plots were cut in staggered sequence to permit growth intervals to overlap and to allow frequent assessments of the rate of production.Keywords
