The forage quality of habitats associated with mature conifer plantations and the use of these habitats by resident snowshoe hares (Lepus americanus) were evaluated. The winter forage of hares was composed of deciduous stems that were predominantly low in protein content and not preferred. The crude protein content of the principal browse species, Viburnum dentatum, was only 4.6–6.4% during winter months. However, snowshoe hares feeding on the low-protein browse maintained their body weight. The intake of protein was maximized by the consumption of stem ends, which compensated for the low-protein forage. Use of habitat by snowshoe hares was closely related to the vegetative cover but did not correlate well with forage availability. Sites preferred by hares had a well-developed overstory (mature spruce) but only sparsely available forage during the winter. Thickets of early-successional deciduous vegetation had high use and contained most of the low-protein browse.

Purpose. To determine the peculiarities of formation of productivity, as well as the chemical composition, nutritional value and energy intensity of grass forage, depending on the measures of surface improvement of the meadows of the Carpathian mountain forest zone. Methods. Field works, laboratory, mathematical-statistical. Results. Productivity of haymaking and perennial mowing fluctuated on the range of 2.15–4.77 t/ha and 1.95–4.11 t/ha during the 3-year research of dry mass yield. Compared to the variants without additional sowing of grasses and fertilizer use, the highest productivity of haymaking was upon the additional sowing of cereal grass mixtures and applying of N60P30K60 – 12 % and 85 %, respectively. Productivity of perennial mowing increased upon the additional sowing of Trifolium repens and applying of P30K60 on 85 % and 111 % respectively. The best uniformity of distribution of biomass crop by slopes was obtained by the use of multifaceted use of creeping clover with the introduction of P30K60, when the proportion of 1st slope was 39%, 2nd - 33 and 3rd – 28% with unevenness, which is expressed by the coefficient variation - 18%. Among the measures of surface improvement on the quality of feed by chemical composition, increasing, first of all, the content of crude protein, influenced by the introduction of N60P30K60 or 15 t / ha of manure, and in the case of multi-grade use - the sowing of clover on the background P30K60. Irrespective of the measures of surface improvement, higher crude protein content, better energy consumption and nutritious nutritional value of feed were characterized by a multi-use (pasture imitation) mode of use than hay. Conclusions. For surface improvement of the meadows of the Carpathian mountain forest belt with natural herbage, the annual application of N60P30K60, or 15 t / ha of manure, or – N60P30K60 + sowing of a mixture of grass meadows and sapwood with sapwood, on the grass meadows, is a factor of increasing their productivity and improving the quality of herbage. use or – P30K60 + clover seeding for high quality use. The best positive effect is the application of mineral fertilizers in combination with sowing of perennial grasses.

Abstract Deer forages on utility rights-of-way in South Carolina were subjected to six treatments: mow, mow-and-fertilize, burn, burn-and-fertilize, plant-and-fertilize, and control. The influence of these treatments on forage quality was compared seasonally over a 3 yr period. The quality of both native and introduced deer forages was significantly improved seasonally by addition of fertilizer. Planted forages were nutritionally superior to native and naturalized forages that occurred on the unplanted treatments. When the cost per treatment for production of crude protein was compared, the mow-and-fertilize treatment was the most economical. South. J. Appl. For. 17(1):49-53.

Pastoral Value

The importance of maintaining mountain pastures in preserving environmental services is widely known. However, in mountainous regions, environmental and vegetation heterogeneity at the farm scale affect farm management. This study was conducted at the summer pasture of Malga Serona (northeastern Italy) to introduce a discussion of appropriate management at the farm scale. Forty botanical surveys were performed, where an herbage sample from a 100×100 cm surface was collected in each survey. The number of species, the average Landolt index, and the pastoral value (PV) were calculated for each survey. For each herbage sample, nutrient content was measured. We observed differences in botanical composition and in forage quality within the study area. We found that the PV varied from 35.6 to 52.2, NDF from 41.0 to 52.0% and crude proteine from 12.3 to 15.8%. Areas with lower PV and lower forage quality were marginal and were found in surveys with high abundance of Sesleria varia (Jacq.) Wettst., or with species usually present in under-grazed pastures. It is necessary to study botanical composition and forage quality of pastures at the farm level, and to utilize the whole grazing surface in order to maintain and restore high-quality forage.

The production and subsequent feeding of forage during winter is a major expense for livestock producers. Fourteen perennial range forage grasses including crested wheatgrass (WG) [Agropyron cristatum and A. desertorum] , intermediate WG [Thinopyrum intermedium], tall WG [T. ponticum], quackgrass [Elytrigia repens] × bluebunch WG [Pseudoroegneria spicata] RS hybrids, Altai [Leymus angustus] wildrye (WR), basin [L. cinereus] WR, smooth bromegrass [Bromus inermis], and orchardgrass [Dactylis glomerata] were evaluated from 1992 to 1994 for total dry matter (DM) production (November harvest only), crude protein (CP), neutral (NDF), and acid (ADF) detergent fiber from November through March in northern Utah. Mean species DM production rankings (P < 0.01) combined across years were: RS hybrids > smooth bromegrass > basin WR > Altai WR > intermediate WG > orchardgrass > tall WG > crested WG. Mean species CP rankings (P < 0.01) combined across years and harvests were tall WG > intermediate WG > orchardgrass > RS hybrids > crested WG > Altai WR > basin WR > smooth bromegrass. Levels of CP remained constant from November through March for all species and entries. Trends in NDF and ADF remained constant from November through January, but NDF increased slightly in March. Crude protein of the dormant grasses was below the level necessary to maintain ruminal function so protein supplementation would be necessary.

The Impact

Исследования эффективности минеральных удобрений на фоне последействия извести, внесённой в 1983 году, проводили в 1983–2020 годах на опытных полях Института агробиотехнологий ФИЦ Коми НЦ УрО РАН. Целью исследований было изучение влияния минеральных удобрений на продуктивность и качество бобово-злаковой травосмеси, а также выявление изменений агрохимических показателей почвы под влиянием удобрений и мелиорантов. В результате установлено, что наиболее значительный средний урожай бобово-злаковой травосмеси получен при использовании минеральных удобрений (N60P75K75) на фоне последействия извести (2,0 г.к.). Он составил 6,6 т/га сухого вещества (СВ) и превышал вариант без удобрений на 153,8%. Близкая урожайность трав получена при использовании NPK по фону извести 1,0 г.к. — 6,2 т/га СВ. Установлено, что при использовании удобрений и мелиоранта содержание сухого вещества в травах снижалось на 1–2%. Наибольшее количество сырого протеина было в травах при совместном применении NPK и извести (12,3–13,9%), как и содержание фосфора, калия и кальция (0,91–0,94; 2,82–2,93; 0,77–0,79% соответственно). Наши исследования показали: наиболее оптимальным приёмом воздействия на кислую дерново-подзолистую почву является применение минеральных удобрений (N60P75K75) по фону последействия двух доз извести. К 2010 году содержание гумуса повысилось на 0,4–0,5%, обменная кислотность снизилась на 0,6–0,8 ед. pHKCL, гидролитическая кислотность — на 1,3–1,9 ммоль/100 г почвы, содержание подвижного алюминия — на 1,1–2,2 ммоль/100 г почвы. Значительно повысилось количество подвижного фосфора (156–184 мг/кг почвы) и калия (до 141 мг/кг почвы), в большей степени — при применении NPK по фону последействия извести 2,0 г.к. The effectiveness of mineral fertilizers was tested on the background of lime applied in 1983 at the Institute of Agrobiotechnology from 1983 to 2020. The aim was to analyze the impact of mineral nutrition on productivity and quality of a legume-gramineous mixture as well as on soil chemistry. The mixture showed the best productivity (6.6 t DM ha-1) on the background of N60P75K75 and pH of 2.0. The yield increase amounted to 153.8%. Mineral fertilization under soil pH of 1.0 resulted in 6.2 t DM ha-1. The use of ameliorant decreased DM accumulation by 1–2% under fertilization. Combination of NPK and liming led to the highest content of crude protein (12.3–13.9%) as well as P, K and Ca (0.91–0.94; 2.82–2.93; 0.77–0.79%, respectively). Application of N60P75K75 had the best effect on acid sod-podzolic soil on the background of double liming. By 2010 humus content increased by 0.4–0.5%, pHKCL — by 0.6–0.8 units, hydrolytic soil acidity — by 1.3–1.9 mmol/100 g of soil, soluble Al concentration — by 1.1–2.2 mmol/100 g of soil. Concentrations of soluble P and K grew significantly — 156–184 and up to 141 mg/kg of soil, respectively, mostly due to the NPK application under soil pH of 2.0.

Forage quality of small grain cereals harvested after flowering affects animal performance adversely. The feasibility of using mixtures (MX) of spring-planted winter cereals with spring cereals to improve forage quality at the late milk stage of the spring cereal was investigated at Lacombe and Brooks, Alberta during 1987 and 1988. Spring monocrops (SMC) of oats (Avena sativa L.) and barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) and winter monocrops (WMC) of wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) and winter triticale (× Triticosecale Wittmack) were compared with binary MX of spring and winter combinations using a randomized complete block design. Dry matter (DM) yield and concentrations of in vitro digestible organic matter (IVDOM), crude protein, neutral detergent fibre (NDF), acid detergent fibre (ADF) and lignin were determined. Dry matter yields of MX as a percent of their SMC counterparts ranged from 84 to 99% at Lacombe and from 82 to 113% at Brooks; no crop combination was consistently superior. For forage quality the cropping systems ranked WMC > MX > SMC. The effects of winter wheat and triticale on forage quality in the MX were similar. However, MX containing barley generally had higher IVDOM and lower NDF, ADF and lignin concentrations than those containing oats. At Lacombe and Brooks, IVDOM and crude protein concentrations of the MX were increased by 6.5 and 7.2% and by 21.2 and 23.6%, respectively, while NDF, ADF and lignin concentrations were decreased by 6.7 and 6.5%, 9.9 and 7.5%, 10.9 and 20.4%, respectively, compared with the SMC group. While the extent of compensation is not known the improved forage quality of the MX should partially offset the slight reduction in DM yield compared to the SMC.Key words: Forage potential, forage quality, mixtures, spring cereals, winter cereals
