OverviewThis text describes how competition between plant species, and succession in plant ecosystems, operate in grasslands and grazed pastures, both natural and sown. The outcomes of competition and succession are important to agriculture and ecology. Competition and succession are both influenced by environmental and biological factors, and so they may be regulated to optimize botanical composition, productivity and persistence. The book also examines the ways in which competition and succession are analyzed, evaluated and measured.
