Accumulated dry matter yield of the P. notatum over spring and summer in 1987-88 at Samford, southeast Queensland was 35 percent greater under the tree canopy than under full sunlight. There was no difference in yield of grass under the trees and in the open for a 10-week regrowth period in the following winter. The grass under the trees had a greater proportion of green leaf, greater concentrations of nitrogen and potassium, and greater moisture content, than the grass in full sun. The results indicate that there are circumstances where combination of trees with pasture could benefit grass growth in this environment and could improve pasture quality. Further work is needed to examine the implications of this for agroforestry.
