The effect of harvesting time (morning vs. afternoon) on the chemical composition and nutritional value of sun-drying alfalfa, clover and barley forages [PDF]
پژوهشهای علوم دامی ایران, 2021 Introduction[1] Forages are grown mainly for feeding livestock, especially in dairy cows, because adequate roughage is needed in diets to provide good rumen function. However, as more roughage is fed, the energy density of the diet is reduced.

Modeling the Growth of Forage Legumes
Journal of Agricultural Science, 2020 Modeling the growth curve of agricultural crops is of paramount importance so that management tasks such as fertilization and irrigation can be carried out at the appropriate time, increasing the vegetal yield. With this purpose, nonlinear models are commonly employed.
