| This six year experiment quantified the impacts of management factors on red clover yield, persistence, nutritive value and ensilability, and compared these to perennial ryegrass receiving inorganic N fertiliser. Within a randomised complete block design, field plots were used to evaluate a 2 (cultivar; Merviot and Ruttinova) x 2 (alone or with perennial ryegrass) x 2 (0 and 50 kg fertiliser N/ha in mid March) x 2 (harvest schedule) combination of factors relating to red clover, and a 2 (harvest schedule) x 4 (0, 50, 100 and 150 kg N/ha for each cut) combination of factors relating to perennial ryegrass. The Early and Late harvest schedules both involved four cuts per year but commenced a fortnight apart. Red clover treatments averaged 14,906 kg dry... |
