Quality of herbage at different latitudes.
In a cooperative experiment, yield and herbage quality of timothy was measured during the uninterrupted growth of the 1st cut at 6 lat. (51-69 deg N). Rate of production was greatest at Tromso (69 deg N), apparently because of the long day and rapid reproductive development. Digestibility of OM decl...
