White clover inclusion in intensive dairy production systems
Incorporating white clover into intensive dairy production systems has the potential to increase their sustainability through increased milk output and reduced nitrogen (N) input. To support intensive stocking rates (<2.75 cows/ha) some inorganic N will still be required to support herbage …

Estimating forage yields with simple methods
… before and after rotational grazing of grass-clover pastures. Visual and Disc methods were also evaluated on experimental plots of ryegrass and bluegrass. Generally, high correlations with actual yield were obtained by all four methods. Correlations with actual clover percentage were …

Environmental Impact of Pasture-Based Milk Production in Integrated Crop-Livestock Systems
… confirmed the soil C sequestration potential of grass-clover (GC) leys and demonstrated how management influences C dynamics, highlighting ICLSs' potential to enhance soil C retention while reducing net CO₂ emissions. The third objective examined how cultivation timing affects nitrous oxide (N₂O) …

ENHANCED SOIL STRUCTURING BENEATH WHITE CLOVER AND ITS IMPACT ON NUTRIENT TRANSPORT
… that soil structural differentiation under white clover is phenomenally rapid and enhanced when compared with ryegrass. White clover is one of the most nutritious and widely distributed forage legumes. Its use is advocated in sustainable systems of livestock production because of its ability to …

Measuring the temperature response of soil respiration from two distinct carbon pools in soil.
… silt loam was mixed with a ¹³C labelled rye-grass clover litter, and incubated for 5 and 20 hours at 30 discrete temperatures (~2 – 50 °C). Resulting CO₂ was separated into litter and soil organic carbon (SOC) sourced respiration rates using a mixing model, and then fit with macromolecular …
