English

Subject field(s)
  • Botany
  • Grain Growing
  • Milling and Cereal Industries
CONT

Pennuda is a hulless oat and all other oat varieties tested in this report have hulls. Since hulls constitute 30% or more of the yield of a hulled oat, a grower should expect a similar reduction in the volume of harvested grain compared to hulled varieties. Oat varieties without hulls have higher total digestible energy, crude protein and bushel weight.

La parcelle expérimentale, divisée en petits blocs distincts répétés, a été ensemencée de la façon suivante [...] : 65 lignées de blé de printemps, 34 lignées d’orge à six rangs, 28 lignées d’orge à deux rangs, 10 lignées d’avoine ordinaire et 4 lignées d’avoine à grains nus.

La avena es el cereal de menor valor energético, como consecuencia de su alto contenido en fibra y lignina y su bajo nivel de almidón. Su contenido en B-glucanos es elevado, pero inferior a la cebada...Las variedades desnudas, y la avena descascarillada, tiene en cambio un elevado valor energético, superior incluso al del maíz, y resultan muy palatables para lechones.
