Evaluating UAV-Based Remote Sensing for Hay Yield Estimation [PDF]
Sensors(1) Background: Yield-monitoring systems are widely used in grain crops but are less advanced for hay and forage. Current commercial systems are generally limited to weighing individual bales, limiting the spatial resolution of maps of hay yield.

Effects of Prickly Burnet (Sarcopoterium spinosum (L.) Spach.) Control and Sheep Grazing on Hay Yield and Quality on Gökçeada Island, Turkey. [PDF]
Animals (Basel), 2022 (1) Background: The effects of prickly burnet (Sarcopoterium spinosum) control measures (pulling out, burning and cutting) and grazing on the botanical composition, grazeable dry matter (GDM) yield and nutritional values of rangeland were investigated on

Effects of mulching on soil CO2 fluxes, hay yield and nutritional yield in a forage maize field in Northwest China. [PDF]
Sci Rep, 2019 AbstractIn arid areas of China, water shortage and heavy carbon emissions have been threatening agricultural sustainability and which has become a vital issue. A field experiment was conducted to explore how different mulching affects soil moisture and temperature, CO2 fluxes, forage-maize hay yield and nutritional value during 2 consecutive years ...

C3 and C4 Grass Species: Who Can Reduce Soil Nitrous Oxide Emissions in a Continental Arid Region?
Atmosphere, 2020 In order to relieve grazing pressure, drought-tolerant grass species are widely cultivated in arid regions. However, soil N emission is largely neglected while pursuing forage yield.

The Influence of Time of Cutting upon the Yield and Composition of Hay [PDF]
The Journal of Agricultural Science, 1912 The study of two years' hay crops indicates that the composition of the hay steadily changes throughout the period commonly covered by the hay-making season.The nature of the change depends to some extent upon the character of the season. In the summer of 1909 when the climatic conditions favoured steady growth there was a steady production of protein ...
