The growth characteristics and yield per unit area of two cultivation systems of forage, corn (Zea mays L.) monoculture and corn-cowpea (Vigna sinesis King) inter-cropping were compared and obtained follow results. 1. The two cultivation systems were not significantly different in leaf length, leaf width and length of internode with harvesting time. 2. The weight of stalk and leaves of a plant were decreased with maturity, while weight of ear was markedly increased. The patterns of relative ratio of each components was essentially same in each cultivation system. In corn monocrop., the percentages of stalk, leaf and ear at final harvesting stage were 22.9, 13.7 and 63.4, respectively. 3. Dry matter yield per unit area (33kgIlOa) of intercropped corn at yellow stage was similar to that of monocropped corn ( l,482.8kg/ 10a vs 1 ,SO8.9kg/ 10a). At ripe stage, however, the DM yield of intercrop. was higher than that of monocrop. (1,810.4kg/lOa vs 1,660.4 kg/ 1 Oa). 4. The same pattern was observed in organic matter yield.

본 연구는 답리작에서 사일리지용 총체보리를 파종시기와 파종량에 따른 생육특성, 생초 및 건물수량에 미치는 영향을 구명하고자 수원 소재 축산연구소에서 2001년 10월부터 2003년 5월까지 3년간 수행하였다. 본 연구는 분할구 시험법으로 3반복 설계 배치하였으며, 결과를 요약하면 다음과 같다. 총체보리의 초장은 일찍 파종하는 것이 높게 나타났으며, 건물률에 있어서도 일찍 파종할수록 높았다. 즉, 10월 5일과 20일 그리고 11월 5일에 파종했을 때 각각 47.4, 41.5 그리고 34.5%였다. 그리고 파종 시기에 따른 ha당 생초수량은 파종시기가 늦어짐에 따라 30,090 kg에서 16,018 kg으로 적었으며 건물수량에 있어서도 14,230 kg에서 5,521 kg으로 적었다(p<0.05). 따라서 본 시험의 결과를 종합하면 우리나라 답리작 논에서 총체보리의 ha당 생산성을 높이기 위해서 파종시기는 10월 20일 이전이고 ha당 파종량은 220 kg/ha로 파종하는 것이 바람직하다고 생각된다.

Four introduced forage rape (Brassica napus) cultivars, 'Akela', 'Ramon', 'Sparta', and 'Velox' and a leading rapeseed cultivar, 'Hallayuchae' were grown at nitrogen (N) rates of 0, 100, 250, 300, 350, and 400 kg/ha to (i) select forage rape cultivars adapted best to Cheju area, and (ii) determine the optimum N rate for the best cultivars. Days from seeding to flowering across the cultivars increased 190 to 195 days as N rate increased from 0 to 400 kg/ha. Average days to flowering of six cultivars ranged from 182 to 198 days. Plant height increased as N rate increased up to 300 kg/ha and then decreased with a further increase in N rate and ranged from 159 to 174 cm among the cultivars. The optimum N rate for the greatest dry matter yield of five cultivars ranged from 222 to 258 kg/ha. Sparta showed the greatest dry matter yield (35.79 Mg/ha), followed by Akela, Hallayuchae, Velox, and Ramon. As N rate increased, crude protein content linearly increased but crude fiber content declined curvilinearly. Akela and Sparta had higher protein content than the other cultivars did. The forage cultivars had lower crude fiber content than the oilseed cultivar Hallayuchae did. Our results demonstrated that Sparta was best adapted to Cheju area and the optimum N rate for Sparta was about 220kg/ha.

Four introduced forage rape cultivars 'Akela', 'Ramon', 'Sparta', and 'Velox' and a leading rapeseed cultivar Hall-ayuchae were seeded on 1 October 1994 on 20-cm rows at seeding rates of 3, 5, 7, 10, 13, and IS kg/ha to select the best adapted forage rape cultivars and to determine the optimum seeding rate in the Cheju area. Days to flowering of each cultivar was not significantly affected by seeding rate. Average plant height increased from 151 to 164 cm as seeding rate increased from 3 to 10 kg/ha and then decreased to 156 cm at 15 kg/ha. Stem diameter linearly decreased with increasing seeding rate. The optimum seeding rate for the greatest dry matter and protein yields of five cultivars ranged from 10.7 to 11.8 and 10.8 to 14.4 kg/ha, respectively. Dry matter yields of five cultivars ranged from 7.72 and 22.01 Mg/ha. Sparta produced the greatest dry matter yield, followed by Akela, Ramon, Hallayuchae, and Velox. Crude protein yields of five cultivars ranged from 0.29 to 1.08 Mg/ha. Sparta produced the greatest crude protein yield, followed by Akela, Ramon, Velox, and Hallayuchae. As seeding rate increased, crude protein content linearly increased but crude fiber content linearly decreased. The forage cultivars had higher crude protein and lower crude fiber than the oilseed cultivar Hallayuchae. Our results demonstrate that Sparta was the best adapted cultivar to Cheju area and the optimum seeding rate for Sparta was about 10 kg/ha.

This experiment was carried out to investigate effect of plant density on yield and quality of corn at the forage experimental field, grassland and forage division, National Livestock Research Institute, RDA, Suwon eom 1996 to 1997. The two corn hybrids, P 3352 and G 4743, were grow at plant density of 67,000; 71,000; 83,000 ; 89,000 and 95,000 plantha in 60,70 and 75-an spaced rows. At the low density, plant and ear height were decreased but ear length and weight were increased. Plant density had little effect on the tasseling date, silking date and ear ratio to total dry matter. The total dry matter yield of two hybrids was increased kom 15,294 to 18,996 in P 3352 hybrid and 15,881 to 21,386kglha in G 4743, respectively, by decreasing plant density. Plant density had little effect on the ADF(acid detergent fiber), NDF (neutral detergent fiber) and CP(crude protein) concentrations, but the quality of late maturity hybrid, G 4743, was higher than that of early maturity hybrid, P 3352. The result of this study indicate that 67,000 plantlha plant density was recommendable for machanization and maximum DM yield of corn.

With a purpose of finding out the influences of herbicide treatment method on the forage yield, nutrient productivity, weed control, and persistency in the Rumex acetosella dominated pasture, this trial was arranged as a randomized block design with six treatments[1.Seeding(control), 2. Lime+seeding 3. glyphosate 4 $\scr{l}$ + dicamba 2 $\scr{l}$ /ha+seeding 4. glyphosate 4$\scr{l}$ +dicamba 2$\scr{l}$ /ha+lime+seeding 5. glyphosate 4$\scr{l}$ +dicamba 21 / ha+seeding+dicamba 4 $\scr{l}$ /ha and 6. glyphosate 4 $\scr{l}$ +dicamba 2 $\scr{l}$ /ha+ lime+ seeding+dicamba 4 $\scr{l}$ /ha], and conducted in Hwasung Kyonggi Province and in Youngam, Jeonnarn Province from June, 1992 to October, 1995. In the Rumex acetosella dominated pasture, the treatments of glyphosate 4$\scr{l}$ +dicamba 21 /ha+lime+ seeding+dicamba 4 $\scr{l}$/ha controlled 88-98% of the weed (Rumex acetosella), increased 88- 173% of forage yield, and were high 82- 175% of energy (TDN and NEL) productivity than those of the control(seeding), respectively. The results of this study indicated that herbicide treatment was effective for the control of Rumex acetosella, and good renovation of grassland and higher DM yield of forage could be obtained by twice application of glyphosate 4 $\scr{l}$+ dicamba 2 $\scr{l}$ /ha and dicamba 4 $\scr{l}$ /ha.

Objective: This study was conducted to obtain an objective index that can be quantified and used for establishing an animal welfare certification standard in Korea. For this purpose rumen pH, ruminating time, milk yield, milk quality, and blood components of cows reared in farms feeding high forage level (90%) and farms feeding low forage level (40%) were compared. Methods: Data on rumen pH, rumination time, milk yield, milk fat ratio, milk protein ratio, and blood metabolism were collected from 12 heads from a welfare farm (forage rate 88.5%) and 13 heads from a conventional farm (forage rate 34.5%) for three days in October 2019. Results: The rumination time was longer in cattle on the welfare farm than on the conventional farm (p<0.01), but ruminal pH fluctuation was greater in the cattle on conventional farm than the welfare farm (p<0.01). Conventional farms with a high ratio of concentrated feed were higher in average daily milk yield than welfare farms, but milk fat and milk production efficiency (milk fat and milk protein corrected milk/total digestible nutrients) was higher in cattle on welfare farms. Blood test results showed a normal range for both farm types, but concentrations of total cholesterol and non-esterified fatty acid were significantly higher in cows from conventional farms with a high milk yield (p<0.01). Conclusion: The results of this study confirmed that cows on the animal welfare farm with a high percentage of grass feed had higher milk production efficiency with healthier rumen pH and blood metabolism parameters compared to those on the conventional farm.

Agroforestry in terms of intercropping cow pea as summer forage with Grewia tenax was undertaken under sub -irrigation system in two consecutive seasons of 2017 and 2018 in saline soil of Khartoum State of Sudan. The aims were to find out suitable agro forestry system for saline soils as well as to investigate effect of tree spacing on field summer forage crop under semi -irrigation system. Therefore G. tenax trees that spaced at 4×4 m were used as main factor versus cow pea crop that incorporated at 25×50 cm intervals by using completely randomized block design with 3 replications. Trees and crop parameters were determined in terms of plant growth and yield. In addition to land equivalent ratio and soil chemical and physical properties at different layers were determined. The results revealed that, soil parameters in terms of CaCo₃, SAR, ESP, pH paste and EC ds/m were increased with increasing soil depths. Meanwhile tree growth did not show any significant differences in the first season in 2017. Whereas in the second season in 2018 tree growth namely; tree height, tree collar and canopy diameters were higher under intercropping than in sole trees. Cow pea plant height recorded significant differences under sole crop in the first season in 2017. Unlike the forage fresh yield that was significant under the inter cropped plots. Tree fruit yield was higher under sole trees and land equivalent ratio was more advantageous under GS2 (1.5 m) which amounted to 4. Therefore it is possible to introduce this agroforestry system under saline soils to provide summer forage of highly nutritive value to feed animals and to increase farmers' income as far as to halt desertification and to sequester carbon.

Eleven sorghun-sudangrass hybrids have been recommended as the government recommended forage cultivars, however, their forage performance and quality have mostly been tested at two regions, such as Suweon in the Middle Northwestern Coast Region and Sunghwan in the Middle Southwestern Coast Region. Therefore, the objective of this experiment was to retest the forage performance and quality of eleven government recommended sorghum-sudangrass hybrids(TE haygrazer, 988. TE haygrazer-R, SX-17, NC + 855, 855F, GW9110G, G83F, Sordan 79, Speed feed and Jumbo) at five regions, such as Icheon in the Middle Northern Inland, Suweon in the Middle Northwestern Coast, Sunghwan in the Middle Southwestern Coast, Keongsan in the Keongpook Inland and Kwangju in the Southern Inland, 1993 and 1995. Among the eleven hybrids tested, 'NC + 855' gave the highest forage yield at all regions when averaged over the two-year period, but others varied by region. 'NC + 855' was the highest yielding at Icheon, Keongsan and Kwangju, G83F was highest at Suweon and 855F was highest at Sunghwan. 'Jumbo' (headless type) was generally higher in forage quality than others, but at both Suweon and Icheon, 'NC + 855' and '855F' were higher quality than others. As the results of the experiment, 'TE haygrazer', 'NC + 855' , G83F and 'GW9110G1 at Icheon, 'G83F' and 'Sordan 79' at Suweon, 'NC + 855' and '855F' at Sunghwan, '988' and 'NC + 855' at Keongsan, and 'TE haygrazer-R' , 'NC + 855', 'GW9110G' and 'G83F' at Kwangju might be preferable to other hybrids because they have higher forage yield.

This field experiment was conducted to determine the effect of grazing and cutting management on the forage production and botanical composition at different legumes sown swards of the experimental field of Livestock Experiment Station. in Suweon, from Aug. 1985 to Oct. 1988. The results obtained are as follows: 1. Dry matter yield of cutting management (1213.0 kg/lOa) was higher by 19% than that of grazing management (1016.8 kg/lOa). Yield of pasture mixtures including alfalfa both cutting and grazing were higher than those including ladino clover and red clover. Yield under grazing was inferior to cutting in the first year but superior in the second year. 2. Seasonal dry matter production under grazing showed 5 1% in spring, 33% in summer and 16% in autumn, but under cutting showed 46% in spring, 42% in summer and 12% in autumn. 3. Daily dry matter production per 10a under grazing is decreased 5.9 kg in spring, 5.5 kg in summer and 3.7 kg in autumn. But under cutting is decreased 8.7 kg in summer, 6.6 kg in spring and 3.4 kg in autumn. 4. Botanical compositions of mixtures swards involving ladino clover and red clover were not influenced by method of defoliation. But mixtures swards including alfalfa were highly influenced by method of defoliation. Alfalfa ratio at the time of final utilization under grazing was about 30%, but under cutting was about 70-80%.
