INTERACTIONS IN FORAGE YIELD TRIALS

Canadian Journal of Plant Science, 1964
A study was conducted to evaluate the effects on forage yield of interactions between a few common management treatments and herbage mixtures. Relative yields of the species and mixtures under comparison varied with the amount of fertilizer applied, stage of growth prior to harvest, stubble height, and seeding method. The response of grass to nitrogen

Impact of Defoliation on Corn Forage Yield

Agronomy Journal, 2004
Farmers, agronomists, and crop insurance adjusters question whether leaf defoliation damage caused by hail or other factors affects corn (Zea mays L.) forage yield the same as grain yield. Our objective was to evaluate the effects of defoliation on corn grown for forage production. In studies conducted during 3 yr at two sites in Wisconsin and one site

Burning Bluestem Range: Forage Yields

Transactions of the Kansas Academy of Science (1903-), 1963
Fire has always been an important factor in the ecological complex of grasslands, with man credited as the primary source of grassland fires (Sauer, 1944). Indians often used fire to attract game to the fresh grass or to drive game to the hunters (Hough, 1926).

Simulating Forage Sorghum Yields with SORKAM

Agronomy Journal, 1997
AbstractA validated crop model can be a valuable tool for evaluating new production and management practices, particularly for crops routinely grown in environments that produce large variation in field performance tests. Previous work has been done to validate SORKAM a crop growth model for grain sorghum [Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench].

Forage Yield and Quality of Semidwarf Barley

Crop Science, 1994
Semidwarf barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) with enhanced lodging resistance has been developed for feed grain production. Its potential as a forage crop has not been evaluated. Our objective was to determine forage yield, forage quality, and grain yield of semidwarf barley compared with conventional barley cultivars developed for malting and feed grain ...

Comparison of sorghum classes for grain and forage yield and forage nutritive value

Field Crops Research, 2013
Abstract Sorghum ( Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench), including sorghum-sudan crosses [ S. bicolor subsp. Drummondii (Nees ex Steud) de Wet & Harlan] (SS), represents a broad category of plants that includes those grown primarily for forage or grain. Sorghum cultivars can be further classified as brown midrib (BMR), nonBMR, photoperiod sensitive (PS ...

Effect of Overseeding Forages into Alfalfa on Alfalfa Weevil, Forage Yield and Quality

Journal of Agronomy and Crop Science, 2001
Many alfalfa (Medicago sativa L.) fields are sprayed each year with insecticides to control Egyptian alfalfa weevil (Hypera brunneipennis) and the alfalfa weevil (Hypera postica). Overseeding various species of legumes and grasses into established alfalfa has been proposed as a method to mitigate weevil damage without insecticides.

Forage and Grain Yields of Wheat and Triticale as Affected by Forage Management Practices

Crop Science, 1993
Most research on the effects of grazing cereal grains has been conducted on hard red winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) and little information exists concerning the influence of forage harvest on the subsequent grain yield of other cereal crops. The objectives of this study were to evaluate the effects of forage harvest management on subsequent grain ...

Irrigation of Forages with Rendering Plant Wastewater: Forage Yield and Nitrogen Dynamics

Journal of Environmental Quality, 1985
AbstractWastewater from an animal by‐product rendering plant containing N, P, and biochemical oxygen demand (BOD) at greater than 500, 60, and 500 mg L−1, respectively, was applied to irrigated forages to study the suitability of forage species and the fate of applied nutrients.

Yield and quality of triticale forage

2009
Dry matter (DM) and crude protein (CP) yield at the milk-dough stage of 33 triticale (Triticosecale Withmack) lines were evaluated in the Mediterranean-type environment of Turkey. This experiment was carried out in 2004-2005 and 2005-2006 at the experimental station of Uludag University in Bursa, Turkey, on six CIMMYT winter triticale lines and 27 pure
