Fig. 2

Milk production potential yields as calculated in the original paper by Schaub et al.6 (original), compared to values recalculated to include maintenance energy requirements and daily dry matter intake capacity of dairy cows (‘recalculated’), as a function of plant diversity. Boxplots: center line, median; box limits, upper and lower quartiles; whiskers, 1.5× interquartile range; points, outliers; cross, arithmetic mean.
