Haplorthods; Medicago sativa; agronomy; alfalfa; cultivars; dormancy; overwintering; snow; snowpack; spring; winter hardiness; winterkill
Abstract:
... The lack of a definitive method to assess winter hardiness in alfalfa (Medicago sativa L.) remains a challenge in the north-central region of the USA where winterkill of alfalfa can be severe. The reliability of fall dormancy ratings for describing alfalfa cultivar susceptibility to winter injury and the role of snow depth in moderating temperatures near the plant were investigated at Chatham, MI ...

Elymus repens subsp. repens; Haplorthods; Medicago sativa; alfalfa; application timing; discing; energy; forage; forage yield; glyphosate; labor; minimum tillage; mowing; paraquat; pesticide application; plant density; plowing; sandy loam soils; seedlings; sowing; sward
Abstract:
... Minimum-tillage establishment of forages offers potential advantages over the conventional method in terms of reducing energy and labor requirements, erosion hazard, and improving flexibility, and timeliness of operation. Our objective was to compare these methods of establishing alfalfa (Medicago sativa L.) with various herbicides, time intervals between herbicide application and seeding, and see ...

3. Yield and Quality of Alfalfa as Influenced by Additions of S to P and K Fertilizations under Greenhouse Conditions

Author:
Y. A. Martel; J. Zizka

Agronomy journal 1977 v.69 no.4 pp. 531-535
ISSN:

Subject:
Haplorthods; Humaquepts; Medicago sativa; NPK fertilizers; alfalfa; clay; dry matter accumulation; fertilizer application; greenhouse production; greenhouses; potassium fertilizers; rain; sandy loam soils; sandy soils; silty clay soils; sulfur; sulfur fertilizers; superphosphate; Quebec
Abstract:
... Alfalfa (Medicago sativa L.) obtains sulfur from soil reserve, air, and rainfall. These sources of S may need to be supplemented with fertilizer S in normal superphosphate to produce optimum yields. The objective of this work was to determine the need of alfalfa in S fertilization in relation with the addition of P and K normally used on Quebec soils. Alfalfa ‘Rambler’ was grown in the greenhouse ...
