Abstract
The dry tropical livestock systems go through dramatic decrease in milk production during the dry season. This can be mitigated by including legumes as green manure in forage crops as silage and hay to feed cows. Two experiments were conducted to evaluate 1) the contribution of legumes to milk production in cows supplemented with Canavalia brasiliensis as hay and 2) the effect of the removal of legume (5 levels between 0-100 %) on corn production as forage. A direct relationship between the level of legume biomass removal and reduced maize yield (r = 0.85) was observed. When levels of removal of C. brasiliensis were below 50 %, the forage yield of corn was not affected (MS 11,283 kg ha-1) compared to non-removal treatment (12,601 kg MS ha-1)(p > 0.05). At the time of corn harvest, the total nitrogen decreased (15-20 %); NO3 varied between 8 and 26 mg/kg, with lower levels contained in the removal of 75 to 100 %; and 15 % organic C increased with the removal of 0, 25 and 50 % legume. Regarding the second experiment, it was found that cows supplemented with hay C. brasiliensis, increased their milk production by 17 % with supplementation of 1.5 % LW/day. The compositional quality of milk did not change due to the treatment of hay supplementation of C. brasiliensis.
期刊介绍:
The journal Ciencia y Tecnología Agropecuaria (Science and Agricultural Technology) is a four-monthly scientific publication edited since October 1996 by the Corporación Colombiana de Investigación Agropecuaria - Agrosavia. The journal publishes articles on diverse thematic areas typical of the agricultural sector (multidisciplinary), written in Spanish or English, especially from Latin American and Caribbean researchers. The contributions that apply for the journal must be original and unpublished. The articles are reviewed by national and international peers (peer review). The journal is non-commercial and open access, this means that it doesn’t charge for the reception and/or publication of articles in both, its printed and digital version. The journal is aimed at the scientific community of the agricultural sector in Latin America and the Caribbean.
