GRASS-LEGUME MIX [1 record]

Record 1 2007-01-13

English

Subject field(s)
  • Animal Feed (Agric.)
CONT

Which legumes to include in the pasture mix depends on soil pH ..., management, and producer preference. Simple grass/legume mixtures (brome/alfalfa, orchardgrass/red clover, etc.) that are well adapted to the site can be very effective and are relatively easy to manage.

OBS

Grasses or grass-legume mixes are best suited for orchard use.

OBS

This mixture or mix is often referred to as "feed mixture". This term is not a synonym since it can contain only grass or can be a mixture of both.

French

Domaine(s)
  • Alimentation des animaux (Agric.)
CONT

Les espèces qui conviennent le mieux aux vergers sont les graminées ou les mélanges graminées-légumineuses.

OBS

Le terme «mélange fourrager» est souvent employé pour désigner ce mélange, mais il s'agit d'un usage fautif. En effet, le «mélange fourrager» peut être composé uniquement de graminées.
