Abstract
Abstract Cold temperatures and drainage increase nitrogen (N) losses from livestock production systems, so autumn management and forage type were investigated as strategies to mitigate N loss whilst meeting animal requirements. The effect of regrowth interval and fertiliser rate on plant dry matter (DM) yield, plant N and digestible organic matter in the DM (DOMD) was measured in six forage species over 4 weeks regrowth, in Canterbury in autumn 2015. As regrowth interval increased, herbage DM yield increased (from 180 kg DM/ha to 922 kg DM/ha, P
