Abstract

Results of 115 field trials are tabulated in respect of the average increase in herbage quality (as defined by six grade classes) by P fertilizing in general, by increasing applications of 20-160 kg/ha P2O5, and by P dressings on different soils ranging from sands to peats. The response to P of various species of grasses and forbs, and the P status of soils (five classes of 0-20 to >80 citric solubility) in relation to herbage quality and frequency of different grass species are also discussed.
