Densities of plant-parasitic nematodes were compared on six crops grown for forage during the summer of 1991 at seven sites in north central Florida. The cropping treatments were 'Howard' soybean (Glycine max), 'Deltapine 105' soybean, velvetbean (Mucuna deeringiana), 'California Blackeye #5' cowpea (Vigna unguiculata), 'Pioneer 3098' tropical corn (Zea mays), and 'Asgrow Chaparral' sorghum (So...

Information about the extent of variation in quality traits among plants sampled at the same developmental stage but on different dates would be useful to forage researchers. The primary purpose of this study was to obtain such information for five forage sorghum [Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench] cultivars. Percent dry matter, crude protein, and in vitro dry matter disappearance of leaf, stem, and ...

An experiment was conducted to determine effects of inter-cropping lablab (Lablab purpureus) with 3 selected early-maturing sorghum (Sorghum bicolor) varieties (Teshale, Girana-1 and Misikir) on plant morphology, grain forage yield quality plus forage, assess farmers’ perceptions the crops in Kalu District, South Wollo, Ethiopia. Seven treatments, namely: T1 - sole (SL); T2 Teshale + (TL); T3 (...

Information about the potential for crop–wild hybridization is needed to understand how crop genes, including transgenes, affect the population genetics and ecology of sexually compatible relatives. Transgenic sorghum is under development for use by traditional farmers in Africa, the center of origin for sorghum [Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench], but systematic surveys of the current extent of cont...

Abstract The objective of this study was to evaluate the productive and structural characteristics Paiaguas palisadegrass established in monoculture intercropped with agricultural crops 2018 2019. evaluated treatments were: (PP) monoculture, PP maize, sorghum, soybean. experimental design used a randomized block, 4 replications (plots 160 m²). Sward height, tiller density, dry mass production, ...

Intensification of dryland cropping systems with cover crops (CCs) in the semi-arid central Great Plains could enhance soil health and diversify production when used for forage. This study was conducted from 2015 to 2020 determine forage mass, nutritive value CCs, effects dual-purpose CCs on properties a no-till winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L.)–grain sorghum [Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench]–fal...

to evaluate the effect of different application methods of different strains of pgpr on sorghum forage production, a field experiment was conducted in research farm of college of agriculture of university of tehran in karaj during 2009. the treatments were arranged factorially and the data was analyzed based on a complete block design with three replications. the treatments comprised of three p...

Lack of forage in the winter dry season is a concern for cattle production tropical Brazil. Pasture renovation with silage might solve an immediate and help develop improved pasture condition after cropping. The present study was focused to compare quality monocropped sorghum intercropped Marandu grass and/or pigeonpea two row spacings. experiment carried out on sandy Oxisol São Paulo state Bra...
