Abstract

Perennial ryegrass (Lolium perenne) has already been used for several years between the test plots when establishing clover variety experiments at the Department of Plant Husbandry at Tikkurila. A row of ryegrass separates the plots well from each other and facilitates observations. As successful winter survival under Finnish conditions may depend on a number of different factors (low temperature parasitic fungi, damage caused by water and ice), the ryegrass helps in making further ascertainments of the causes of clover destruction. The seed rate of the ryegrass used is 10 kg/ha.
