Languages : en
Pages : 51
Book Description
A vigorously growing, dense stand of alfalfa forms the basis for profitable forage production, but it depends on high yields. Land, machinery, & most other operating costs stay the same whether harvesting 3 tons/acre or 6 tons/acre. Top yields in the U.S. have approached 10 tons/acre while average yields are around 3 tons/acre. This book describes what it takes to move from a 3-ton yield to 6 or 9 tons/acre. Chapters: select a field carefully; test soil before planting; select a good variety; planting; fertilize annually; management of manure, weeds, disease, & insects; when to rotate from alfalfa; forage quality; & management of harvest, fall, & hay. Illustrated.

Overseeding and Companion Cropping in Alfalfa
Author: W. Mick Canevari
Publisher: UCANR Publications
ISBN: 9781601073525
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 40
Book Description
Alfalfa is considered the “queen of forages” because it is high yielding, high in forage quality, a persistent perennial, and resistant to many pests and diseases. Because of these qualities, alfalfa is not a crop that is typically thought to benefit from overseeding or companion cropping. However, overseeding can enhance your yield and the quality of your stand, and companion cropping may hold significant pest-management advantages. Find out when and why you may want to overseed or companion crop to reap these benefits. Inside you’ll find information on: • Factors to consider for overseeding including selecting the right species • Seeding dates and rates for various crops used in overseeding • Harvest compatibility • Risks and benefits of companion cropping • Various possible companion crops • Pest interactions in mixed alfalfa crops • Quality, market and economic considerations of mixed alfalfa crops This concise, easy-to-use, 31-page guide is profusely illustrated with 31 color photographs and 12 tables.
