Legume Forage Quality

Journal of Crop Production, 2002
Abstract Legume forage quality research is now concerned not only with nutritive value of forage for ruminant animals, but the impact of these nutrients on environmental quality. If we are to move to a more sustainable agriculture worldwide, more legumes must be incorporated into animal production systems.

Mixtures of legumes for forage production.

2017
In Europe, legumes are mostly grown as single species or in mixtures with cereals or grasses. As an alternative cropping strategy, mixtures of legumes for forage have been developed in Serbia. This novel approach can be applied in many other temperate regions of Europe.

Forage Legumes: Forage Quality, Fixed Nitrogen, or Both

Crop Science, 2011
ABSTRACTForage legumes have the unique attributes of producing a high‐quality forage to enhance animal performance and the ability to utilize atmospheric N that eliminates the legume plants dependence on soil N. Biological N2 fixation (BNF) rates are dependent on the infection by an effective rhizobia strain on the root hairs for each legume species ...

Combining Kura Clover with Forage Legumes and Grasses to Optimize Pasture Forage Legume Content

Agronomy Journal, 2012
Kura clover (Trifolium ambiguum M. Bieb) is an underutilized forage legume with great potential as a durable forage legume in permanent pastures and in living mulch management systems. A major impediment to the widespread use of kura clover is establishment difficulty. Several studies have examined practices for establishing kura clover in pure stands,

Phenolic glycosides of forage legume Onobrychis viciifolia

Phytochemistry, 2000
A chemical examination of the extractives of the leaves of sainfoin was undertaken as part of a programme directed at understanding the factors which may contribute to its nutritive value as animal feed. Among the low molecular weight phenolic compounds characterized were seven cinnamic acid derivatives and nine flavonoid glycosides all of which were ...

Temperate forage legumes for adverse conditions.

CABI Reviews, 2007
Abstract The suitability of temperate forage legumes for adverse physical conditions is considered. The ability of the major forage legumes i.e. lucerne, white and red clover and birdsfoot trefoil and the 'minor' species, many originating from Mediterranean-type climatic zones, to withstand soil acidity, alkalinity and salinity and drought ...

Shoot tip culture in forage legumes

Plant Science Letters, 1980
Abstract Shoot tips of Trifolium repens, T. pratense and Medicago sativa were cultured on various culture media. Blaydes basal medium and Gamborg B5 basal medium, both supplemented with 0.2 mg/l IAA and 0.2 mg/l 2iPA, gave good plantlet regeneration for T. repens (63–82%) and T. pratense (53–76%). Gamborg B5 with 0.2 mg/l NAA was best for M.
