Forage Yield and Species Composition in Years following Kura Clover Sod‐Seeding into Grass Swards

Abstract: and Seguin, 2005). In these situations, legume sod-seeding is a recommended renovation strategy to improve Sod-seeding legumes into grass pastures improves forage producgrass-dominated swards. Legumes are generally seeded tivity and quality, but legumes currently used lack persistence. Field experiments were established in Qué bec and Minnesota to compare

“…Some yield limitation may be attributed to the low productivity of the experimental site that is typical of unimproved mixed grass pasture in the SGP (Berg, 1995;Gillen and Berg, 1998), but the use of a no-till management regime in the work reported here is also likely to have reduced legume production. In contrast with other research, for example, that of Cuomo et al, (2003) and Laberge et al, (2005), no chemical suppression of the existing crop was made prior to sowing legumes, even though this has been identified as an important determinant of success for overseeded forages (Bartholomew, 2005). Warmseason grass suppression was not undertaken here because the warm-season pasture was close to the end of its growing season when cool-season legumes were sown and it was assumed that existing pasture would not compete with establishing legumes.…”

“…As the cost of manufactured N increases the introduction of legumes into existing pastures may provide a sustainable and reduced-cost method of maintaining forage productivity on small and resource-limited farms. Legume use is not, however, without problems since early-season growth of legume may prejudice production of warmseason companion grass (George et al, 1995), and lack of persistence of legumes is a widely recognized constraint to their use Laberge et al, 2005). Little attention has been given to the performance and persistence of legumes grown in a low-input and lowproductivity environment where unimproved warm-season grasses are the primary source of forage.…”

“…Bezorebným příse-vem lze docílit uchycení nových výnosnějších a kvalitnějších druhů ve stávajícím travním porostu (Muto a Martin, 2000; Pavlů et al, 2000). Největší význam se v současné době přisuzuje přísevu jetelovin díky jejich vysoké produkci, vysoké kvalitě píce, rovnoměr-nému rozložení výnosu v průběhu roku a schopnosti symbiotické fi xace dusíku, která umožňuje úplnou a nebo částečnou náhradu hnojení dusíkem (Bukvaj, 1991;Guretzky et al, 2004;Hrazdíra, 1989;Laberge et al, 2005;Mourino et al, 2003;Sleugh et al, 2000). Dalším efektem je, že zvířata pasoucí se na porostech jetelovin vykazují vyšší přírůstky a vyšší produkci z jednotky plochy než při pastvě na čistě travních porostech (Mourino et al, 2003).…”

“…(Hrazdíra, 1989). Také Sleugh et al (2000) zjistili vyšší produkci a vyrovnanější rozložení výnosu v průběhu roku u směsí trav a jetelovin v porovnání s travními monokulturami hnojenými N. Rovnoměrnější nárůst hmoty a vyšší produkci v letním období u přisetých ploch s vyšším podílem jetelovin, na které poukazují různí autoři (Guretzky et al, 2004;Hrazdíra, 1989;Laberge et al, 2005;Mourino et al, 2003;Sleugh et al, 2000), se nám nepodařilo proká-zat ani v prvním užitkovém roce, kdy bylo v porostech zastoupení jetelovin vyšší. Snížení výnosů na přisetých plochách v roce 2005 koresponduje se sní-žením podílu jetelovin, které zde byly zastoupeny zejména Trifolium pratense.…”

“…Its forage yields during the establishment and first production year are often less than for red clover (Trifolium pretense L.) and birdsfoot trefoil (Lotus corniculatus L.) but are relatively greater as stands mature (Sheaffer Potassium Fertilization of Kura Clover 451 and Marten 1991;Laberge et al 2005;Seguin 2007). Kura clover forage quality is typically greater than for alfalfa (Medicago sativa L.), birdsfoot trefoil, and red clover because of its greater leaf concentration (Sheaffer et al 2003).…”
