Effect of Cultivar and Date of Harvest on Corn Plant Quality as Measured by Feeding Trials

Pages : 214
Book Description
The objective of this study was to investigate the effect of hybrid and advancing maturity on corn plant quality to simulate corn silage, as measured by feeding trials. Four corn cultivars - brown midrib low lignin cultivar (BM 105), waxy (WX 135), a normal (JX113)-a sister line of the BM 105, and a male sterile type, mix elm, were grown at the Arlington Experiment Farms, Wisconsin, at the population of 88,920 plants per hectare. Entire plants were harvested at 75 percent silk, 23 days post-silking and at physiological maturity. The waxy cultivar produced significantly more dry matter per hectare than the other cultivars. Concnetration of acid detergent fiber (ADF), acid detergent lignin (ADL), neutral detergent fiber (NDF) and crude protein (CP) decreasedsignificantly with advancing maturity in all hybrids. Whole plant forage was dried and fed to goats in conventional 14 by days feeding trials in a complete randomized design. At physiological maturity, the mix elm cultivar was the highest in percent ADF, ADL and lowest in digestibility of DM, ADF, and NDF. O f all the cultivars, the low lignin cultivar was the lowest in concentration of ADF, ADL and ndf and highest in digestibility of DM, ADF and ndf, The normal and waxy cultivars were not significantly different in ADF and ADL concentration and were intermediate in NDF and digestibility. Voluntary intake of pelleted material did not differ significantly between the low lignin, waxy normal cultivars, but was significantly lower for mix elm. (...).

Managing Cover Crops Profitably (3rd Ed. )
Author: Andy Clark
Publisher: DIANE Publishing
ISBN: 1437903797
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 248
Book Description
Cover crops slow erosion, improve soil, smother weeds, enhance nutrient and moisture availability, help control many pests and bring a host of other benefits to your farm. At the same time, they can reduce costs, increase profits and even create new sources of income. You¿ll reap dividends on your cover crop investments for years, since their benefits accumulate over the long term. This book will help you find which ones are right for you. Captures farmer and other research results from the past ten years. The authors verified the info. from the 2nd ed., added new results and updated farmer profiles and research data, and added 2 chap. Includes maps and charts, detailed narratives about individual cover crop species, and chap. about aspects of cover cropping.
