Determining the Effect of Planting Date and Land Preparation Method on Seedling Emergence, Forage Mass, and Forage Nutritive Value of Forage Brassica [PDF]
Agronomy, 2021 Forage brassicas are used as a forage in monoculture and multispecies mixtures, yet research defining best management practices is limited. Two studies were conducted to evaluate the effects of land preparation method and planting date on establishment ...

A Pilot Study to Estimate Forage Mass from Unmanned Aerial Vehicles in a Semi-Arid Rangeland
Remote Sensing, 2020 The application of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) in the monitoring and management of rangelands has exponentially increased in recent years due to the miniaturization of sensors, ability to capture imagery with high spatial resolution, lower altitude ...

Blooming and Forage Characteristics of Twelve Native Forbs Subjected to Repeated Defoliation
Agronomy, 2023 Insect pollinators are in population decline due to environmental and chemical stressors. Including native forbs in pastures could benefit grazers and pollinators; however, their forage and flowering characteristics are not fully documented.

THE EFFICIENCY OF SELECTION FOR SEED YIELD IN THE FAHL VARIETY OF EGYPTIAN (BERSEEM) CLOVER, Trifolium alexandrinum L. [PDF]
Journal of Plant Production, 2007 Two cycles of modified mass selection and one cycle of family selection were applied on a population of the Fahl variety of Egyptian clover. In 2003/2004, two hundred plants (5% selection intensity) were selected for seed yield, using the modified mass ...
