Abstract
The primary objective of this trial is to obtain basic data on the problem of so-called "ill-thrift" by relating soil conditions and seasonal changes in production and chemical composition of pure stands of various pasture species to the growth and health of the grazing. animals-in other words, a study of soil-pasture-animal relationships. In addition, the effects of certain trace elements and anthelmintics on lamb thrift have been studied. This paper summarises some of the results obtained during the second year of the trial.Keywords
