Silage from tropical cereals and forage crops
The preservation of forages by ensiling has been a well known technology for many years and is popular in North America and Europe. This technology requires high investment in facilities, accurate timing in the several stages of the ensiling process, and better understanding of the whole process than hay making demands. In addition to these demands, silage making and management in tropical cond...
متن کاملCarbon and nitrogen stable isotope ratios differ among invertebrates from field crops, forage crops, and non-cropped land uses1
Stable isotopes are an important tool for studying invertebrate food webs and movement of invertebrates in farmland. However, stable isotope values of farmland invertebrates have been reported for only a few crop types, and rarely for other land uses within farmland. We compared 13C and 15N of invertebrates captured in corn, soybean, hay, and hedgerows in eastern Ontario, Canada. 13C was signif...
متن کاملMonitoring Shallow Groundwater Nitrogen Loading from Dairy Facilities with Irrigated Forage Crops
California’s dairies are the leading confined animal industry in the state. A majority of these family-owned dairies with an average herd-size of nearly 1,000 animal units are located in low-relief valleys and basins. Little is known about the impact of traditional and proposed dairy farming practices on water quality in the extensive alluvial aquifers underlying these basins. We have recently ...
متن کاملCxciii. the Composition of Forage Crops
MANY papers dealing with the composition and digestibility of forage crops are to be found in the literature, but the analyses are usually restricted to those few groups included in the conventional methods of agricultural analysis. These rarely extend beyond the determination of ash, or mineral constituents, crude protein, crude fibre and ether-soluble material. The sum of these analyses is fa...
متن کاملConservation Tillage Corn and Forage Crops
Several reduced, or conservation tillage (CT) approaches are currently being evaluated in Central Valley forage production systems. In theory, these practices reduce costs and minimize the time needed to go from one crop to the next. Recent single-year trials with dairy forage producers in Stanislaus and Tulare Counties have evaluated the potential of several CT systems and have identified a nu...
