A summary of the resultsfollows: The age of the pasture season influences the yield and composition ofpasture grass as follows: 1. The best yields are obtained in May and September. 2. The dry matter of the grass is lowest in May and highest in ranges from 29 .57 to 39 .33 percent, with an average between 32 and 33percent. 3. The protein is lowest in May and highest in October. It increasesfrom percent in Lay to percent in midseason, when it drops to in September. In October it reaches its maximum of percent. 4. The ether extract in grass ranges from to percent (for Mayand August.) It increases with t
