Pastures constitute an integral part of the acreage on most farms in the humid North-East or North America. In the Province of Quebec one firth of the farmland is devoted to pastures of one soil or another, representing three and three quarter million acres. Although adequate grassland resources are evidently of primary importance in grassland farming, pasture improvement progresses slowly, for mainly two reasons, firstly, the pastures are usually the most neglected crop on the average farm, and secondly, an entire misconception or the nature of grassland, i.e. the non-recognition of its complex nature.
