Grassland plant and invertebrate species richness increases from mowing are mediated by impacts on soil chemistry

Pasture and improved grasslands are commonly managed by a combination of artificial fertilisation and biomass removal, but a deeper understanding of how management options interact over the long-term are required to improve sustainability. Studies of multi-trophic responses to these options can prov...
