Interseeding sainfoin with alfalfa offers early‐season increase in forage production

Agrosystems, Geosciences &Environment, Volume 9, Issue 3, September 2026.
Abstract Alfalfa (Medicago sativa) is a widely cultivated forage legume valued for its high forage mass and nutritive value but is often associated with pasture bloat in ruminants. Interseeding alfalfa with sainfoin (Onobrychis viciifolia), a tannin‐rich legume known for its anti‐bloating properties and environmental benefits, has emerged as a ...

The effects of three silage inoculants on aerobic stability in grass, clover-grass, lucerne and maize silages

Agricultural and Food Science, 2013
The objective of the study was to investigate the effects of homofermentative and heterofermentative lactic acid bacteria (LAB) inoculants on fermentation and aerobic stability in a variety of crops and dry matter concentrations. The experiments were conducted with lucerne, ryegrass, ryegrass-timothy, red clover-ryegrass and whole crop maize using ...

Pearl millet demonstrates potential as a forage and cover crop in Wisconsin vegetable systems

Agrosystems, Geosciences &Environment, Volume 9, Issue 3, September 2026.
Abstract Pearl millet (Pennisetum glaucum (L.) R. Br.), a crop that is recognized for heat and drought tolerance and ability to suppress root‐lesion nematode (Pratylenchus penetrans), could serve as a suitable forage and cover crop for potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) and vegetable production systems in Wisconsin.

Biostimulants‐driven improvements in productivity, resource use efficiency and protein yield in pea–barley intercrops

Agrosystems, Geosciences &Environment, Volume 9, Issue 3, September 2026.
Abstract Biostimulants promote plant growth, nutrient uptake, and drought tolerance, reducing reliance on synthetic fertilizers. Intercropping, involving multiple crop species on the same land, is a promising practice. In Denmark, pea (Pisum sativum)–barley (Hordeum vulgare) intercrop (PBIC) is commonly used for grain and fodder production.

A comparison of four cover crop species interseeded into early‐season corn using broadcast and high‐clearance drill seeding methods in Ohio

Agrosystems, Geosciences &Environment, Volume 9, Issue 3, September 2026.
Abstract Cover cropping provides central US corn (Zea mays L.) growers tools for controlling erosion, suppressing weeds, and managing nutrients. Cover crop establishment timing is a key limitation for the adoption of cover crops. Recent early‐establishment efforts have included aerial broadcasting and the use of high‐clearance drills.

sulphur and chlorine contents of grass and maize silage

Acta agriculturae Slovenica, 2001
In seven defined samples of grass and in six samples of maize silage the contents of sulphur and chlorine were determined by two analytical procedures: both elements with X-ray fluorescence spectrometry (XRF), sulphur separately with inductively coupled plasma – atomic emission spectrometry (ICP-AES) and chlorine according to Volhard (Skoog and West ...

Effect of Phosphate Fertilization and Cutting Date Improves Nutritional Status and Productive Parameters of a Tropical Forage Legume

Legume Science, Volume 8, Issue 3, September 2026.
ABSTRACT The use of chemical fertilizers is economically and environmentally costly to produce and apply. Therefore, optimized fertilizer use is critical to increase or maintain crop yields. We evaluated the productive and nutritional characteristics of the Stylosanthes cv “Campo Grande” submitted to different cutting date and phosphate fertilization ...
