Abstract

A study was made to determine what effect various intensities at clipping had upon yield, basal cover, and growth at 3 pasture types near Hays, Kansas. The study was conducted for 2 growth seasons (1955 - 1956) on a bluestem dominated, a reseeded, and a shortgrass pasture. The pasture types were located on the lower slope at a large hill, with each type being similar in per cent slope, soil depth, and s0il texture.
