Extract

The developments which have taken place during recent years in the scientific management of grassland have resulted in a marked improvement both in the quality and in the quantity of the herbage produced. This has been brought about partly by frequent manuring, particularly with nitrogenous manures, and also by ensuring the close cropping of the grass at frequent intervals.
