Two trials were conducted at Ubay Stock Farm, Bohol<br />
from June 1989 to June 1990 to evaluate the effect of top<br />
dressed superphosphate application on the productivity of<br />
native/stylo mixed pastures grown in Ubay clay series<br />
soil. In trial 1, the effect of 4 levels of phosphorus (P)<br />
application (0, 30, 60, 90 kg P/ha) on yield, botanical and<br />
chemical composition of mixed pasture was evaluated.<br />
Total dry matter yield (DMY) was significantly (P
