Forage and Grain Yields of Wheat and Triticale as Affected by Forage Management Practices

Abstract: Most research on the effects of grazing cereal grains has been conducted on hard red winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) and little information exists concerning the influence of forage harvest on the subsequent grain yield of other cereal crops. The objectives of this study were to evaluate the effects of forage harvest management on subsequent grain yields of triticale (× Triticosecale Wittmack) and wheat to determine the growth stage for cessation of forage harvest to optimize grain and forage production.

“…Diminished grain is normally associated with the removal of shoot apices by grazing (Droushiotis 1984). Forage harvesting should be completed by the early-joint stage in order to avoid reducing tiller survival and the photosynthetic area needed to support reproductive growth (Miller et al 1993).…”

“…Comparative studies involving dual-purpose use of winter and spring types are also lacking. It is recommended that forage utilization should end by the first node stage in triticaie, in order to minimize grain yield reduction due to tiller mortality and the subsequent reduction in the availability of photosynthetic area to support reproductive growth with later defoliation (Miller et at., 1993)-Grazing during culm elongation in cereal crops is particularly deleterious because growing points are removed (Holiday, 1956). This means that managing triticale for dual purpose requires consideration not only of the plant phenological stage at the time of cutting but also of the length of the growing season remaining after defoliation and the regrowth capacity of the cultivar to be used (Sharrow, 1990;Garcia del Moral, 1992).…”

“…With decreasing leaf area and photosynthesis rate 1000-kernel weight is reduced. Grain weight loss due to heavy grazing also has been reported by various researchers [10]. Grains act as a source of assimilates and at early growth stages have chlorophyll and are effective in hydrocarbon production [11].…”
