Warm-season annual forages in forage-finishing beef systems: I. Forage yield and quality [PDF]
Abstract The demand for a year-round supply of fresh, locally grown, forage-finished beef products has created a need for forage-finishing strategies during the summer months in the southeast. A 3-yr study was conducted to evaluate four warm-season annual forages in a southeastern forage-finishing beef production system.

Switchgrasses: Forage Yield, Forage Quality and Water-Use Efficiency [PDF]
The purpose of the study was to evaluate 3 strains of switchgrass (Panicum virguturn L.) under 3 water and 3 harvest regimes. Dry matter yields, under natural rainfall and full irrigation, averaged 2.0 and 6.7 metric tons/ha, respectively. Productivity of the 3 strains ranked G 3OO>HV-341>Biackweii. Yields of HV-341 and Blackwell were similar under 1,2,

Comparison of Forage Yield and Quality of Forage Legume [PDF]
ABSTRACT Forage legumes are being used as an important source of protein for dairy farm as well as nitrogenfertilizer. This experiment was conducted to evaluate forage production and quality of five legumes at CheonanYonam College Experimental Livestock Farm for 1 year(2001 2002).

Forage Quality of Winterhardy Lovegrasses [PDF]
Germplasm of Eragrostis curvula and E. lehmanniana was evaluated for in vitro dry matter disappearance (IVDMD), palatability (animal preference among genotypes), and forage vigor (weight/plant). Our objective was to determine if sufficient genetic variation was present among relatively winterhardy genotypes to develop new lovegrass varieties with ...

Experimental warming alters migratory caribou forage quality [PDF]
AbstractGlobal declines in caribou and reindeer (Rangifer) populations have drawn attention to the myriad of stressors that these Arctic and boreal forest herbivores currently face. Arctic warming has resulted in increased tundra shrub growth and therefore Rangifer forage quantity.

SAMPLING TESTING FOR FORAGE QUALITY
The identification of the suitable sample size and adequate sampling place when alfalfa hay was chemically analyzed in order to determine its nutritional value was the aim of our test. Two loads of alfalfa hay were used for collecting samples, two sizes each (15 and 10 subsamples, variant I and II, respectively).

Quality and Production of Forage [PDF]
The book ""Quality and Production of Forage"" is intended to keep readers updatedon the developments occurring in this field. As it is apparent that livestockanimals are important throughout the world because of the meat, milk and eggthey produce, knowledge about the forages available to animals must also beconsidered for increased production, quality ...
