Body

Comparisons were made of within-plant weight distribution, chemical composition by plant part, and total plant digestion by nylon bag technique of mature annual grasses and forbs collected from pure-stand plots and adjacent range. Under the conditions of this experiment it would be erroneous to grow, harvest, and analyze plants from pure-stand plots in order to make inferences about their nutritive value under range conditions. This material was digitized as part of a cooperative project between the Society for Range Management and the University of Arizona Libraries.
