Marketing Hay by Nutritive Value and Weight
Introduction The use of hay-only winter feeding programs is expensive and contributes significantly to the overall cost of cow ownership. Producers should examine the use of alternative winter feeding strategies that reduce the dependence on hay and reduce input costs for the cow-calf production system. A backup plan, however, for the inevitable drought or ice/ snow cover days will require a st...
متن کاملInfluence of Different Seeding Dates on Fenugreek (Trigonella foenum-graecum L.) Forage Yield and Nutritive Value
Fenugreek (Trigonella foenum-graecum L.) is used as medicinal plant in many Asian countries and has been reported to have forage quality similar to alfalfa. Fenugreek is an annual crop and may have the potential to diversify forage production systems in the central High Plains. This study evaluated forage dry matter (DM) production and the nutritive value of three fenugreek cultivars as influen...
متن کاملQTL mapping of forage yield and forage yield component traits in Sorghum bicolor x S. sudanense.
The sorghum-sudangrass hybrid (Sorghum bicolor x S. sudanense) is an important forage crop. However, little is known about the genetic mechanisms related to forage yield and the 4 forage yield component traits in this forage crop. In this study, a linkage map was constructed with 124 assigned SSR markers using an F2 mapping population derived from the crossing of sorghum Tx623A and sudangrass S...
متن کاملReactions of sorghum-sudangrass hybrids and pearl millet to three species of Meloidogyne.
Sorghum-sudangrass hybrids and pearl millet, Pennisetum americanum (L.) Leeke., are grown extensively in the southeastern United States; the former is used for forage, seed, and summer cover crop and the latter, primarily for grazing, forage, and summer cover crop. The extended period during which these crops can be planted makes them especially adapted to a doublecropping system with winter-gr...
متن کاملCombining Ability Effects for Mineral Elements in Forage Sorghum Hybrids
The concentrations of minerals in forages are important in satisfying animal requirements, but little attention has been given to determining these concentrations in forage sorghum (Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench.) breeding programs. In this 2-yr study, the objectives were to determine the contents, genetic variability, combining ability effects, and correlations for 12 mineral elements in 49 expe...
