Abstract
This experiment was conducted to compare the agronomic characteristics and productivity of introduced crimson clover cultivars at paddy field of Naju(Jeollanam-Do Agricultural Research and Extension) from 2004 to 2006. The crimson clover cultivars used in this study were 4 varieties('Oregon com.' 'Tibbee', 'Contea', 'Linkarus') The fastest flowering variety was chinese milk vetch, while 'Linkarus' was the latest one as of as 5th May. The average dry matter(DM) content was 24.3% and crude protein(CP) content was 14.9%. 'Oregon com.' showed the highest CP content of 18.3% among crimson clover and Chinese milk vetch showed the highest CP content by 19.3%. Average acid detergent fiber(ADF), neutral detergent fiber(NDF) and total digestible nutrient(TDN) content were 35.1%, 45.3% and 58.9%, respectively. With by the winter hardness the productivity of crimson clover cultivars were severely various. Linkarus showed the highest DM yield with 6,986kg/ha but the DM yield of 'Tibbee' and 'Oregon com.' was low by 3,639 kg/ha and 1,980kg/ha, respectively. The results of this experiments indicated that the productivity of crimson clover cultivar varied from winter hardness, therefore we will consider the winter hardness as major factor when introducing crimson clover cultivars into Korea. According to the results obtained from this study, it is suggested that 'Linkarus' would be recommendable for fall sown crimson clover for dry matter production.
본 시험은 우리나라에 도입된 crimson clover를 나주지역에서 재배시 월동성과 수량이 높은 품종을 선발하기 위하여 1999년부터 2000까지 전라남도농업기술원 시험포장에서 수행하였으며 그 결과는 다음과 같다. 공시된 4 품종중에서 개화기는 자운영이 가장 말랐으며 Linkarus 품종이 5월 5일로 가장 늦었다. 평균 건물 함량은 24.3%로 높게 나타났다. 조단백질 함량은 평균 14.9%를 나타내었으며 Oregon com.이 18.3%로 높았고 자운영의 경우는 19.3%로 가장 높았다. ADF, NDF 그리고 TDN 함량은 평균 38.1, 48.3 그리고 58.9%이었다. Crimson clover의 생산성은 월동성에 따라 많은 차이를 보였는데 Linkarus 품종의 건물 수량이 6,986\;kg/ha로 가장 높았으며 Tibbee 및 Oregon com. 품종은 각각 3,639 및 1,980 kg/ha를 보여 생산성이 떨어졌다. 본 연구의 결과에 의하면 가을 파종용 Crimson clover 품종은 Linkarus를 선택하는 것이 좋을 것으로 생각된다.
