Determination of Forage Quality in Triticale Binary Mixtures With Fodder Pea and Hungarian Vetch in Yozgat Conditions
Journal Title: ISPEC Journal of Agricultural Sciences - Year 2023, Vol 7, Issue 1
Abstract
This study was conducted to determine the forage quality of forage peas (Pisum sativum ssp. arvense L.) and Hungarian vetch (Vicia pannonica C.) and triticale (X triticosecale Wittmack.) binary mixtures in Yozgat conditions, was carried out in Yozgat Yerköy district during the vegetation period of 2021-2022. In the study, seeds of Hungarian vetch, forage pea and triticale were sowed in 4 different mixture ratios (80% MF-YB + 20% T, 60% MF-YB + 40% T, 40% MF-YB + 60% T, 20% MF-YB + 80% T) for each legume, and pure sowing. In the experiment, the plots were arranged in 6 rows with a length of 6 meters and 20 cm between rows. For forage yield and quality, green forage yield, hay yield, crude protein ratio, crude protein yield, ADF, NDF, Ca, K, Mg and P were investigated for quality. All of the examined traits were significantly affected by the mixed sowing rates. The hay yield of the treatments varied between 463 kg da-1 (Hungarian vetch) and 957 kg da-1 (80:20T/YB). In terms of crude protein yield, the mixture ratio of 80:20T/YB (155.9 kg da-1) was found to be the highest. In terms of both grass mixed sowing yielded better results than pure sowing. As a result of the study, 80:20 T/YB mixture ratios in terms of forage yield and quality recommended for Yozgat and regions with similar ecology.
