Vergleich verschiedener Arten und Saatzeiten bei Futterleguminosen

Summary in the original language of the document

Sowing date of fodder legumes and type of legume may influence yield and preceding crop effect. Field trials were conducted at two sites in Upper Bavaria in 2010-2012.
Seven types of clover in pure stands or clover/grass leys were compared for one main production year. Sowing dates were undersowing triticale in spring, stubble seeds
after harvest of preceding crop triticale and spring seed in the main production year. Dry matter and crude protein yields were strongly affected by sowing date and by type
of clover. Earlier sowings lead to higher yield of fodder legumes. Crude protein yield for clover/grass ley dominated by lucerne, red and white clover undersown in triticale
was nearly twice as high as for spring seed in the main production year. Among this clover/grass ley, red clover in pure stands achieved highest yields at species level.
