An evaluation of methods to study interspecific competition in hay and pasture mixtures.

Competition in plant communities is one of these concepts that has been investigated and discussed extensively and yet very few people if any have a thorough understanding of all its intricacies and complexities. Any study that did or will reveal some of the unknowns of this phenomenon in grassland will be a step in the direction that will ultimately permit the attainment of the ideal pasture plant community. However, presently, until more is known, especially on the value of competition as it occurs in hay end pasture swards, any attempt to come forth with recommendations on the compounding of forage mixtures may be rather vain, because these will be only temporary.
