Abstract

Ten tropical legumes were sown with green panic (Panicum maximum var. trichoglume cv. Petrie) at 0 and 4 cwt of superphosphate per acre per year on each of six sites and grown under grazing for 3 years. Dry-matter production in the juvenile sward and midsummer dry-matter yield after a rest from grazing are used to show temporal changes in sward composition and aspects of individual legume performance.
