Abstract:The potential for Lotus pedunculatus is greatest in acid soils of our hill and high country. However, its productivity and longevity are sensitive firstly to establishment success, secondly to nutrient supply and thirdly to the grazing management applied by the farmer. We investigated the role of sulphur fertiliser in productivity, and then tested the influence of defoliation regime on production and spread of Lotus after the establishment of high or low plant populations in low pH, high aluminium soils near M… Show more
