The ryegrass is a winter forage specie commonly used in the south of the country in reason of its adaptability to the region climate conditions and for having the natural regeneration capacity. Therefore, the goal in the present study was to evaluate the BRS Ponteio variety ryegrass production and its protein quality under different levels of cattle manure. The experiment was carried out at the UERGS Rural Campus, located in Santana do Livramento/RS. The experimental design was the randomized blocks with three repetitions by block. The experimental unities were 4 m² land portions. The treatments were five bovine manure levels of 0, 37, 74, 111 and 148 T ha-1. Were evaluated the following characteristics: the shoot natural and dry matter, crude protein content (at 1st, 2nd, and 3rd cuts) and the leaf/stem ratio. The results showed that the use of cattle manure promoted a linear response on the natural and dry matter production in all the cuts analyzed. Also, the treatments with higher bovine manure levels showed higher crude protein content and a higher leaf/stem ratio. The highest production of natural matter, dry matter, crude protein and highest leaf/stem ratio happened in the second cut.
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.
