Evaluation of a Rising Plate Meter for Use in Multispecies Swards
The rising plate meter (RPM) provides rapid estimates of herbage mass (HM). Accurate calibration of the RPM is difficult due to variability in forage management, growth, and species composition. The RPM is typically calibrated by linear regression of HM and RPM height; however, the is usually low....
