About this ebook
This document presents results for an experiment begun in 1944 at Beltsville, Maryland. By 1946, the 5-year rotation was in full operation. This experiment was designed to measure the nature, quantity, and distribution of the nutrients provided for dairy-cattle feed by an improved Kentucky bluegrass-white clover pasture as compared with a 5-year crop-and-pasture rotation consisting of 1 year of corn, 1 year of wheat, and 3 years of a seeded mixture of orchardgrass, Ladino clover, and red clover. The relative cost of producing these nutrients by the two systems was also examined.
