After Portugal joined the ECC, in 1986, huge land use changes occurred: cereal crops área was strongly reduced; native pastures (low productive) área sharply increased (2.1 fold); sown pastures (hhigh productive legumes and grasses mixtures) area remain unchnaged.

Therefore we tested the hypothesis that the low persistence of improved cultivars reduces the profit of the sown pastures.
