Abstract
Gangmowing encouraged the spread of unsown grasses ( Poa spp.) in a ryegrass/white‐clover ley, compared with grazing and no gangmowing. Herbage production from an ungrazed gangmown sward receiving a range of nitrogen dressings was higher than from grazed swards receiving little or no fertilizer nitrogen, but was almost identical at high rates of N application. The experiment was ploughed up in autumn 1955 and sown to wheat. The yields of wheat in 1956 were increased by previous nitrogen treatments up to the moderately high dressing but declined with the final increment. Attention is drawn to the need for further experimental work on the practice of gangmowing.
