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 ...

the seedbed preparation and cereal residue present due to limit of maize (zea mays l.) growing period are a major challenge in double cropping after winter cereals in iran as: shahrekord. in this research, effects of various seedbed preparation methods and crop residuea managements on vegetative growth and yield of forage maize (ksc 704) were studied in a barley-maize double cropping during 200...

sainfoin (onobrychis sativa), a forage legume, is worth attention because of its production and superior quality among pasture and hay forage crops in iran. sainfoin forage yield may be reduced by different levels of salinity. increasing forage yield in saline environments through plant breeding could partially compensate for this shortcoming if sufficient genetic diversity and heritability be ...

in order to study the influence of municipal solid waste compost and nitrogen fertilizer on grain and forage yield of sweet corn an experiment was conducted at marvdasht during 2009. the experiment was arranged in split plots based on randomized complete block design with two factors and three replications. main plot included 5 levels of nitrogen fertilizer (100, 150, 200, 250, 300 kg n ha-1) a...
