White Clover Content in New Zealand Dairy Pastures Affects Milksolids Production
As a preliminary experiment to measuring milksolids (fat plus protein) production of dairy cattle grazing swards containing different levels of white clover (Trifolium repens L.) nine Jersey and nine Friesian cattle housed indoors during late lactation and fed diets containing either 20, 50 or 80% white clover with the balance perennial ryegrass (Lolium perenne L.). During the first 10 day meas...
متن کاملFactors affecting white clover persistence in New Zealand pastures
Better persistence and reliability of white clover (Trifolium repens L.) is critical in achieving a more competitive New Zealand farming industry. To persist, white clover must establish well and withstand the accumulated stresses of competition from associated grasses, grazing, variable soil fertility, drought, plus pest and disease pressure. These factors vary markedly with environment and fa...
متن کاملWhite Clover Morphology Changes with Stress Treatments
white clover is positively correlated with increased size of plant parts and reduced leaf density per unit area The plasticity of white clover (Trifolium repens L.) results in (Beinhart et al., 1963). changes in plant habit in response to different environmental stresses. The objective of this research was to characterize those morphological Defoliation through grazing or clipping is a managech...
متن کاملPhyto-oestrogens in herbage and milk from cows grazing white clover, red clover, lucerne or chicory-rich pastures.
A grazing experiment was carried out to study the concentration of phyto-oestrogens in herbage for cattle and in milk during two periods (May and June). Forty-eight Danish Holstein cows were divided into four groups with four treatment diets; white clover, red clover, lucerne and chicory-rich pastures. Each experimental period lasted 15 days. Herbage samples from the first day and individual mi...
متن کاملDoes White Clover (Trifolium repens) Abundance in Temperate Pastures Determine Sitona obsoletus (Coleoptera: Curculionidae) Larval Populations?
To determine if host plant abundance determined the size of clover root weevil (CRW) Sitona obsoletus larval populations, a study was conducted over 4 years in plots sown in ryegrass (Lolium perenne) (cv. Nui) sown at either 6 or 30 kg/ha and white clover (Trifolium repens) sown at a uniform rate of 8 kg/ha. This provided a range of % white clover content to investigate CRW population establish...
