When livestock are used to measure the output of pasture, the potential output of the animal is on occasions lower than that of the grassland so that this may determine the yields of animal products which are obtained, regardless of pasture type and treatment. The implications of this are discussed in relation to the interpretation of data of grassland evaluation, and also in relation to maximum utilisation of grass.
