Abstract

THE report for 1940 of the director of the Plant Breeding Station at Craig's House, Edinburgh, includes several important practical results of scientific research. It is shown that the renovation of semiderelict pastures is best performed by ploughing up and re-sowing. A nurse crop of Sandy oats to be grazed in July, and a mixture of varieties of one grass species, together with wild white clover, are found to be preferable to sowing a mixture of grass species under rape or a seeding nurse crop of oats.
