Biodiversity for multifunctional grasslands: equal productivity in high-diversity low-input and low-diversity high-input systems
Modern grassland management seeks to provide many ecosystem services and experimental studies in resource-poor grasslands have shown a positive relationship between plant species richness and a variety of ecosystem functions. Thus, increasing species richness might help to enhance multifunctionality...
