A study on forage yield and quality of some silage maize cultivars which can be cultivated as second crop in Bursa
Journal Title: Horticultural Studies - Year 2016, Vol 33, Issue 2
Abstract
This study was conducted under Bursa ecological conditions during second crop season. Bora, DK626, Luce and Sincero varieties were used as plant material in this study. Field experiments were conducted with randomized complete block design with three replications. In the research, some characters as dry matter yield, leaf ratio, stem ratio, cop ratio, crude protein ratio, crude protein yield, ADF and NDF were determined. The highest dry matter yield (1930.0 kg da-1 ), crude protein ratio (7.61%) and crude protein yield (147.45 kg da-1 ) and the lowest NDF content (50.52%) was determined in Sincero variety. According to the results, Sincero variety was suggested as second crop under Bursa and similar ecological conditions.
