- Intervention effect The presence of white clover increased herbage yield by 12–44% relative to perennial ryegrass swards.
- Intervention effect The presence of white clover increased N yield by 26–72% relative to perennial ryegrass swards.
- Intervention effect N fertilizer application reduced the white clover content of the sward.
- Observation The proportion of N derived from atmospheric N fixation was 25–70%.
- Observation Nitrogen fixation ranged from 25 to 142 kg N per ha by the isotope dilution method in 2012.
- Observation Nitrogen fixation ranged from 52 to 291 kg N per ha by the N-difference method across all years.
- Intervention effect Fertilizer N application reduced the percentage and yield of fixed N.
- Observation The N content of the grass increased.
- Recommendation Under intensive grazing the maximum N rate that optimized herbage and N yields with minimal effect on white clover content and fixation was 60–120 kg N per ha.
