Fig. 2. Condensed tannin concentration expressed as catechin equivalents (CE) in grazed birdsfoot trefoil in 1999. Pastures included Norcen birdsfoot trefoil (BFT) and rhizomatous birdsfoot trefoil (RBFT) grown in monocultures and mixtures with tall fescue (TF). Means with similar letter are not different at 0.05 level.
