Effects of grasses and a legume grown in monoculture or mixture on soil organic matter and phosphorus forms

Résumé

Background and Aims Legume use in forage production may replace mineral fertiliser N input by biological nitrogen fixation in grass-legume mixtures. However, these systems may also have high phosphorus requirements. The aim of the study was to determine the amount and composition of C, N and P forms in grassland soil under two different graminaceous species grown in monoculture or in mixture with a legume.
