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.
Download or read book Forage Crops of the World Volume I Major Forage Crops written by Md. Hedayetullah and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2018-10-03 with total page 352 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This new book, the first of two volumes on forage crops grown throughout the world, discusses the importance of fodder production of the major fodder crops for animals. It focuses on the 17 major forage crops, both non-leguminous perennial forages and leguminous forages. It discusses crop production methodology and agronomic management in a systemic way, providing an abundance of information on each type of forage crop, including preferred soil type, land capability, cropping patterns, climate, and socioeconomic conditions. It goes on to address pests of leguminous forage crops, disease management of non-leguminous seasonal forages, agroforestry in fodder and forage crops, preservation of forage crops, and forage production and climate change. This volume provides valuable information needed for effective forage crop production and management. The book, with chapters from highly qualified scientists, will be a rich resource for researchers, academicians, students, and those in the industry. Volume 2 of Forage Crops of the World focuses on minor forage crops. Key features: • Discusses 17 different types of major forage crops, including many types of grasses and other plants • Provides information on agronomic production practices • Covers pest and disease management practices for forage crops

Download or read book Forage Crops of the World 2 volume set written by Md. Hedayetullah and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2022-05-30 with total page 620 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This new 2-volume set discusses the importance of fodder production of the minor fodder crops for animals. The volumes focuses on fodder production for forage crops, cover 17 major forage crops and 25 minor forage crops. The volumes discuss crop production methodology and agronomic management in a systemic way, providing an abundance of information on each type of forage crop discussed, including preferred soil type, land capability, cropping patterns, climate, and socioeconomic conditions. They also address pests of the various forage crops, disease management, agroforestry in fodder and forage crops, preservation of forage crops, and forage production and climate change. Forage crops are very essential for quality milk and meat production. Farm animals are normally fed fodder available from cultivated areas, supplemented by a small extent with harvested grasses and top feeds. The three major sources of fodder are crop residues, cultivated fodder, and fodder from trees, pastures, and grazing lands. The patterns and types of fodder crops vary by geographical location.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Summary of Current Program and Preliminary Report of Progress: Grain and Forage Crops Research of the United States Department of Agriculture and Related Work of the State Agricultural Experiment Stations; December 15, 1967 This report on grain and forage crops research covers work directly related to the production, processing, distribution and consumption of grain, rice, feed, forage and seed and their products. It does not include extensive cross-commodity work, much of which is basic in character, which contrib utes to the solution of not only grain and forage crop problems but also to the problems of other commodities. Progress on cross-commodity work is found in the organizations' unit reports of the several divisions. This report is organized by Problem Areas which are shown in the table of contents. For each area there is a statement of (l) the problem, (2) the usda program, (3) State experiment station programs, (4) a summary of progress during the past year on usda and cooperative work, and (5) a list of publications resulting from usda and cooperative work.
