  "description": "This dataset contains measurements made in fields on the North Wyke Farm Platform, a national capability in South West England. These fields contained either permanent pasture or a Lolium perenne and Trifolium repens pasture, and were used as part of a beef and sheep livestock system. 10 locations were chosen in each field, 5 within 50 m of the field boundary and 5 closer to the middle of the field, and the latitude and longitude of each point is provided. At each location a range of measurements were made, including: percentage cover of plants and bare ground; leaf dry matter content; specific leaf area; pasture dry matter by rising plate meter; soil bulk density; soil organic matter; soil structure; earthworm counts and weights for different functional groups; and soil penetrometer readings.",
