Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from A Study of Some of the Factors That Influence the Yield and the Composition of Growing Pasture Grass
The pasture is the last part of the farm to receive any care. The general Opinion among farmers seems to be that this part of the farm can take care of itself. Considering the immense amount of investigational work carried on to solve other agricultural problems it would seem that the agricultural experimentalist has taken almost the same view of the situation as the farmer himself. As this country becomes more thickly populated and the grass areas are broken up the increasing importance of pastures becomes more apparent. It has often been said that good grass is the basis of good agriculture. Certainly few will disagree with the statement that good grass is the basis of the animal industry, part icularly the dairy part of this industry. With the business of dairy ing, growing of necessity as certainly as the density of pepulation, it is apparent that investigations into the methods of increasing the ef ficiency of pastures are needed.
