Summary

Application of slurry at seeding time produces the best whole crop cereal silage yield without significant drawback in the first cut of timothy nect year. Only Italian rye-grass contributes the WCCS yield. Neither Timothy nor Italian rye-grass produce significant yield the same autumn after harvesting the WCCS. Italian rye-grass ley could be established in barley harvested as WCCS in favourable conditions.
