red clover (trifolium pretense) has wide adaptability to different soil and climatic conditions, and suitable digestibility of forage compared to the other clover species. new red clover cultivar, nasim, was primarily selected from clover germplasm received from food and agriculture organization (fao), the united nations, in seed and plant improvement institute, karaj, iran. agronomic and yield...

Substantial reproduction of Meloidogyne incognita on winter cover crops may lead to damaging populations in a subsequent cotton (Gossypium hirsutum) crop. The amount of population increase during the winter depends on soil temperature and the host status of the cover crop. Our objectives were to quantify M. incognita race 3 reproduction on rye (Secale cereale) and several leguminous cover crops...

in order to study the effect of different n fertilizer on berseem forage in an intercropping with basil, this experiment was conducted in research farm of college of agriculture, university of tehran during growing season 2011. experimental treatments were arranged as split plots based on a randomized complete block design with three replications. different fertilizers consisted of control (no ...

forage species in mixtures are extensively grown worldwide nowadays, particularly as a step towards sustainable agriculture, however, information on this topic is scanty in our country. thus a 2-year (2001-2003) field experiment was conducted to determine the forage yield, botanical composition, as well as competition of some forage grasses and legumes as mono and dual cultures combinations at ...

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...

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...

to study the effects of different n fertilizer on berseem clover forage quality in an intercropping with basil, this experiment was conducted in research farm of college of agriculture, university of tehran in 2011. experimental treatments were arranged as split plots based on a randomized complete block design with three replications. different n fertilizers consisted of control (no n fertiliz...

The objective of this study was to compare utilization of red clover (Trifolium pratense L.) and alfalfa (Medicago sativa L.) by lactating dairy cows. Red clover and alfalfa were harvested and conserved as silage at two maturities in 2 consecutive yr. Each year, diets containing experimental forages and supplemental grain were fed to 16 multiparous Holstein cows in early lactation in a replicat...

Experiments were focused on differences in the ripening of crimson clover (Trifoliumincarnatum L.) and red (Trifolium pratense influence pre-harvest treatment with desiccants. The drying leaves, stems heads during ripening, regrowing, breakdown yield parameters including seed compared. exhibited natural faster than clover. In clover, before harvest was 80 - 100%, 50– 95%, 100 %, respectively. 2...
