Abstract Stability can be desirable for many natural and social systems. Temporal stability, the invariability of a system over time, can be enhanced by resisting displacement during perturbations, accelerating recovery after them, or both1,2,3,4. Likewise, resilience (sensu proximity to unperturbed levels after a perturbation5,6,7,8,9,10) also has components of withstanding (resistance) and recovering after perturbations11,12.

1 INTRODUCTION Biodiversity and ecosystem function (BEF) relationship studies aim to quantify how species diversity affects the quality and quantity of the goods/services that an ecosystem provides (Costanza et al., 1997; de Groot, 1992). The design of these studies can include complex structures, for example, the measurement of multiple responses from the same study unit, multi-site experiments, or split-plot designs.

Credit: Unsplash/CC0 Public Domain Farmers have increasingly sown a single type of grass in their fields over the past 100 years, and then added chemical fertilizer to increase their harvest. But new research suggests that there are alternatives that are cheaper and can increase the potential of these grasslands to feed livestock. My research team and I were particularly interested in the potential of mixing up the species of plants grown in agricultural grasslands and what the benefits might be.
