| Title : | YIELD AND QUALITY TRAITS OF SOME FORAGE CROPS CULTIVATED UNDER AGROECOLOGICAL CONDITIONS OF KOSOVA |
| Abstract : | The field experiment was carried out in the central part of Kosovo, Prishtina region. The experiment was designed in a CRBD fashion with four replication. The plot sizes were 1.5 x 8 m per plot or 12 m2. The research comprised 6 treatments of forage mixtures or pure species: Trifolium pratense + Lolium multiflorum, Lutus corniculatus + Festuca rubra, Lolium multiflorum, Festuca rubra, Trifolium pratense, Lotus corniculatus. Measured traits were, dry matter yield (DMY), mineral composition, acid detergent fiber (ADF), neutral detergent fiber (NDF), Crude Protein (CP), lignin, were determined in this study of each treatments. Our study has revealed that all traits varied significantly (P<0.01) among investigated forage species and their combinations. |
