in order to investigate the integration of phosphorus fertilizer different levels and phosphorus solubilizing bacteria p.fluorescens on quantitative and qualitative forage yield of two fall barley cultivars, an experiment carried out at research farm of college of agriculture of university of tehran during 2009-2010. the experiment design consisted of three randomized complete blocks in a facto...

interval and that total forage production was higher for plots harvested at 6-wk compared with 4-wk intervals. Eastern gamagrass [Tripsacum dactyloides (L.) L.] is a perennial, The effects of plant population density on horticulwarm-season bunchgrass native to the Americas. Although much is tural and field crops is well established (Wade et al., known about the effects of fertilization and harv...

Treatments to reduce solids content in liquid manure have been developed, but little information is available on gaseous N emissions and plant N uptake after application of treated liquid swine manure (LSM). We measured crop yield, N uptake, and NH3 and N2O losses after the application of mineral fertilizer (NH4 NO3), raw LSM, and LSM that was decanted, filtered, anaerobically digested, or chem...

in order to study the effects of planting pattern on yield and yield components in different cultivars of forage corn (zea mays l.), an experiment was conducted at saline conditions (ec=6.43 ds.m-1) of dasht-e-malhe, neyshabour during growing season of 2009-2010. nine treatments and two furrow planting and furrow bed planting as main plots and three cultivars (ksc 704, zp 644 and ns540) as sub ...

in this study 18 forage corn (zea mays l.) hybrid varieties were evaluated based on rcbd with four replications in khorasan razavi agricultural and natural resources research centre, iran, on 2008-2009. result of analysis of variance showed that there was significantly difference between hybrids in forage yield, ear weight and ear to biomass ratio. results of hybrids mean comparison with duncan...

The effect of rate of substitution of processed, urea-treated whole-crop wheat (pWCW) for grass silage on intake, performance and whole-tract digestibility was evaluated using 44 dairy cows. Cows received 10.5 kg of concentrates per day and one of the following forage mixtures (dry matter (DM) basis): grass silage alone (W-0); 0.75 grass silage, 0.25 pWCW (W-25); 0.5 grass silage, 0.5 pWCW (W-5...

Field pea (Pisum sativum), canola (Brassica napus), turnips (Brassica rapa) and Berseem clover (Trifolium alexandrinum) were grown in north central Alberta to assess their potential yield and quality and to evaluate their utilization and preference by white-tailed deer. Herbage DM yield, crude protein (CP), neutral detergent fiber (NDF), absolute and relative herbage utilization, and dietary pr...
