With projected increases in temperature and incidences of droughts and floods, pastures are likely to become more vulnerable to weeds and poor pasture persistence to become an increasingly significant issue. This on-farm study investigates whether increasing the diversity of sown pasture species can increase the pasture resilience and resistance to weeds under different climatic conditions. Thirty paddocks were selected in Northland, Waikato, Taranaki and North Canterbury.
