Popis: The seasonal production of herbage by Tall Grassveld declined with increased frequency of cutting in summer. Even a single summer cutting treatment reduced yields compared with no summer cutting. The effect of such a single cutting treatment varied, however, with the time at which it was applied. Early summer cutting reduced yields more than did late summer cutting.Keywords: tall grasses|summer|morphological differences|plants|cutting heights|species lists|defoliations|pastures|Pietermaritzburg|grass species|seasons|treatments|clipping|grasses|veld|grasslands|responses|frequencies|herbage yields
