Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Identifies the 15 most common annual & perennial grasses in Midwestern pastures: the predominant seeded Midwestern grasses, the most common native pasture grasses, & a few annual weedy grasses. Helps you identify grasses the first year, when you need to know whether a seeding was successful. Helps you identify grasses in established pastures so you can make informed decisions about pasture mgmt., fencing, & renovation. Chapters: seed & seedling identification for new plantings; vegetative identification for established plants; & info. on growth habit & mgmt. for each of the seeded grasses. Color photos.

Download or read book Common Grasses Legumes and Forbs of the Eastern United States written by A.Ozzie Abaye and published by Academic Press. This book was released on 2018-09-14 with total page 410 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Common Grasses, Legumes and Forbs of the Eastern United States: Identification and Adaptation presents photographic identification of the most important grassland, turf, and noncrop plants, and their seeds to facilitate quick identification in the field. Unlike many publications that focus solely on floral identification, this book emphasizes vegetative identification as well to allow for accurate plant identification year-round. The book includes 23 forage legumes, 61 grasses, and more than 100 nonleguminous forbs found in pastures and grasslands of Eastern United States. In addition to identification of important species, the book describes other key characteristics such as adaptation, favorable and unfavorable soil types, seasonal growth patterns, and toxicity. For plants harvested for hay or silage or by grazing, the book also discusses cutting and grazing management, quality factors, and potential yields. Through its practical approach and comprehensive structure, Common Grasses, Legumes and Forbs of the Eastern United States is a valuable reference for farm advisors, teachers and students of agronomy, and for anyone interested in the dynamic relationship between plants and agriculture. Features full-color illustrations of both seed and plant, allowing for rapid identification at multiple stages of development Presents various identification methods and use cases for over 180 plants Details seasonal growth patterns and toxicity, as well as favorable and unfavorable soil types Discusses cutting and grazing management

Download or read book Fodder Crops and Amenity Grasses written by Beat Boller and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2010-01-14 with total page 527 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Grassland farming in Europe was already established during the settlement of the rst farmers together with their domesticated animals after the last ice age. Since then, grassland provides the forage basis to feed ruminant animals for the p- duction of meat and milk. Depending on the ecological conditions and intensity of usage, various plant communities with different species developed, displaying a rich biodiversity. With the introduction of improved crop rotations at the end of the 16th century, grasses and legumes were also grown to an important extent as forage crops on arable land. In the last decades the importance of amenity grasses increased markedly, due to the demand of the society for new usages like landscape protection. Around 1900 interested farmers and academics identi ed the need for gra- land improvement through systematic selection and seed production. This marks the beginning of breeding and research in companies but also at universities and specialized research institutes. Plant collection started with many of the species that are still of importance today. The collected materials were grouped according to the intended use and some type of phenotypic selection was applied. Seed mul- plication of such populations was performed in pure stands and the harvested seed was marketed. Although the vegetative biomass and its quality are of utmost imp- tance in forage crop breeding, it is the seed yield potential which determines the commercial success of a new variety.
