Effect on liveweight gain of upland lambs prior to weaning of (1) under-sowing permanent grassland with Narcissus pseudonarcissus (N. pseudo), and (2) reducing application rates of inorganic fertiliser (where Control = permanent pasture with fertiliser applied at a rate of 50 N kg/ha, 25 P kg/ha and 25 K kg/ha; Daff/full = permanent pasture under-sown with N. pseudonarcissus, with fertiliser applied at a rate of 50 N kg/ha, 25 P kg/ha and 25 K kg/ha; and Daff/half = permanent pasture under sown with N. pseudonarcissus, with fertiliser applied at a rate of 25 N kg/ha, 12.5 P kg/ha and 12.5 K kg/ha (i.e. 50% of the standard rate).
