Synopsis
Annual dry matter yields of orchardgrass and reed canarygrass over a 3‐year period ranged, from 2 tons per acre with 50 pounds of nitrogen to 4.5 tons per acre with 400 pounds of nitrogen. The protein percentage of the dry matter increased from 12 to 20. Recovery of the nitrogen applied in 1954 was 59.7, 73.5, 62.0, and 58.7% for rates of 50, 100, 200, and 400 pounds of nitrogen per acre, respectively.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
