Other claims from this paper (7)
- Observation Total herbage digestibility did not differ among plots.
- Intervention effect Leaf digestibility rose by up to 2.2% under extreme PLH stress.
- Association Herbage NDF was largely unaffected by PLH injury at harvest.
- Intervention effect Infestation reduced leaf protein by about 8.2%.
- Association Stem protein was maintained or enhanced with greater PLH injury.
- Association Visible chlorosis did not necessarily indicate herbage chemical differences.
- Recommendation PLH control should focus on biomass or nutrient yield losses.
