Abstract

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