Six classes of current herbaceous and woody forage were collected seasonally from a 5-yearold mixed loblolly (Pinus taeda) -shortleaf pine (Pinus echinata) plantation (in Texas) and subjected to nutrient analyses and nylon bag dry-matter digestion trials. Forages were most nutritious and digestible in the spring when tissues were succulent and growing rapidly. Browse leaves and twig tips were t...

improve forage quantity and quality using organic and biological fertilizers production of important needs in dryland farming systems of the country. in this study the effects of foliar application of four different combinations of amino acid four different time steps were germinated plant growth, stem elongation, flowering and spraying all three steps above with the control treatment was carri...

this experiment was conducted to investigate the genetic diversity, relationship between morphological, agronomic and qualitative traits and to identify components of forage yield using some multivariate statistical methods in local sainfoin populations. the experiment was conducted as randomized complete block design with three replications in agricultural and natural resources research center...

Search for an adapted forage species for feed production under existing marginal lands and harsh conditions is needed to overcome sever feed shortage in Egypt. Sesbania, Sesbania aegyptiaca (Sesbania sesban, L) has shown potential for forage production and being included in grazing systems, especially on marginal lands and salt–affected soils. An experiment was conducted in the summer of 2004 a...

in order to study the effect of uniconazole and cycocle growth regulators on growth, yield and nutrients content of pearl millet in drought stress condition, a field experiment was conducted in 2007-2008 in agriculture research center of zabol university. the experiment was conducted in split plot base on randomized completely block design with tree replications. main plots were different level...

the objective of these investigation were use of berseem clover (trifolium alexandrinum ) in double cropping system (after autumns crop) to improve forage production in shahrekord region. the experiments were carried out in the preliminary, research and farmer field condition in 2005, 2006-7 and 2013 respectively. in 2005 the results showed that there is possibility of double cropping of bersee...

one of the most effective ways to reach yield stability with low input is increasing diversity through utilizing intercrops in agro-ecosystems. a field experiment based on a randomized complete block design with six treatments and three replications and two crops, green pea and nutrifed millet, was carried out at research farm of agriculture and natural resources of kerman during growing season...

Background Maize fodder is being used as staple feed for livestock but it lacks protein and essential amino acids; lysine and tryptophan. Intercropping maize with leguminous soybean crop is promising technique under limited land resources of South Korea but it can only give considerable advantages when adequate distance is provided between corn and soybean rows. Main aim of present study was to...
