The effect of soil type on yield and macro- and micronutrient content of a wide range of pasture species

The objective of the experiment that generated this dataset was to determine the effect of soil type on the micronutrient content of pasture species (a range of grasses, legumes and forbs). The experiment was conducted in a controlled environment facility. Data are presented on the dry matter yield of each species and the concentration of 21 elements measured in the herbage (Al, As, Ca, Cd, Co, Cr, Cu, Fe, K, Mg, Mn, Mo, Na, Mi, P, Pb, S, Se, Ti, Zn and I). Data are also presented on the total and extractable concentration of elements in the soil, as well as details of nutrient/fertilizer addition and experimental design.
