Sainfoin seeds as protein source for weaned piglets - a new utilization of a long-known forage legume [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Sainfoin (Onobrychis viciifolia) has been used as a forage legume for centuries and is also popular for use as green manure in some Austrian regions, but so far the protein-rich seeds have not been utilized as a feedstuff.

Feeding Management of African Rhinos (Ceratotherium simum, Diceros bicornis) in European Zoos

open access: yesZoo Biology, Volume 45, Issue 2, Page 109-123, March/April 2026.
The average estimated diets (in % dry matter) of white rhinos (C. simum) and black rhinos (D. bicornis) in European zoos differ in the proportion of (pelleted) compound feed and other non‐forage items. The reason for this difference is elusive but possibly related to creating more complicated diets for browsers. ABSTRACT White rhinos (WR, Ceratotherium

Dual mutualistic associations in sainfoin (Onobrychis viciifolia Scop.) : a thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Agricultural Science in Agronomy at Massey University [PDF]

open access: yes, 1982
Recent studies established that many legumes, when infected with the appropriate Rhizobium spp. and arbuscular fungi, nodulated better and exhibited greater dinitrogen fixation than plants infected with only the rhizobia.

Insecticide‐level pest control provided by in‐field flower strips

open access: yesJournal of Applied Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 4, April 2026.
Our findings indicate that in‐field flower strips or derived legume‐based intercropping systems can help reduce reliance on pesticide use in agriculture. Abstract Biodiversity in agricultural landscapes has declined significantly due to intensified farming practices, underscoring the need for sustainable pest management.

RNA‐Seq analysis revealed differentially expressed genes linked to seed size variation in sainfoin

open access: yesGrassland Science, Volume 72, Issue 2, Page 123-133, April 2026.
Abstract Sainfoin is a perennial forage legume with many desirable characteristics such as easy to establish, bloat‐free trait for grazing ruminants and providing pollinator habitat and biological nitrogen fixation to soil. However, adoption of this species is often hindered by high seed cost associated with its larger seed size compared to other ...

Soil Physical Health in Mixed Crop Rotations: Roles of Grassland Proportion, Cattle Manure and Grass‐Mixture Diversity

open access: yesSoil Use and Management, Volume 42, Issue 2, April‐June 2026.
ABSTRACT Integrating grasslands into cropping systems has benefits for nutrient cycling and weed control. Beyond that, grasslands are also recognized for their ability to improve soil organic carbon (SOC) and structural stability (SS). This study examined how grassland proportion, fertilization and grassland mixture, both during the grassland phase and

Selection of suitable additives for seed pelletizing to enhance germination and growth of Onobrychis viciifolia in restoration of semi‐arid degraded rangelands

open access: yesAgrosystems, Geosciences &Environment, Volume 9, Issue 1, March 2026.
Abstract Despite direct seeding, seed pelletizing with useful materials is one of the effective methods to improve plant growth. This experiment assessed the impacts of different additives used in seed pelletizing on germination and growth of Onobrychis viciifolia at a degraded semi‐arid rangeland.
