N, P, And K Fertilization For Newly Established Tall Fescue, D. W. Sweeney, J. L. Moyer, J. K. Farney Jan 2016

N, P, And K Fertilization For Newly Established Tall Fescue, D. W. Sweeney, J. L. Moyer, J. K. Farney

Kansas Agricultural Experiment Station Research Reports

Second-year production of tall fescue was affected by nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) fertilization rates at Site 1 in 2014 and only by N fertilization rates at Site 2 in 2015, with little effect from potassium (K) fertilization at either site.


Adaptability Of Miscanthus Cultivars For Biomass Production, J. L. Moyer Jan 2016

Adaptability Of Miscanthus Cultivars For Biomass Production, J. L. Moyer

Kansas Agricultural Experiment Station Research Reports

In 2015, miscanthus dry matter (DM) did not differ between cultivars, averaging 10,250 lb DM/a. Total three-year production for the cultivars was also similar, averaging 26,170 lb/a.


Forage Production Of Hay-Type Sorghum Cultivars, J. L. Moyer, J. D. Holman Jan 2016

Forage Production Of Hay-Type Sorghum Cultivars, J. L. Moyer, J. D. Holman

Kansas Agricultural Experiment Station Research Reports

Forage production was measured from three cuttings of 14 hay-type sorghum-sudan entries. Total annual yield was greater from ‘AS5201’, ‘Sweet Sioux WMR’, and ‘AS9302’ than from five lower-yielding cultivars.


2015 Kansas Spring Annual Forage Variety Trial, J. D. Holman, A. Obour, T. Roberts, S. Maxwell, J. Kimzey Jan 2016

2015 Kansas Spring Annual Forage Variety Trial, J. D. Holman, A. Obour, T. Roberts, S. Maxwell, J. Kimzey

Kansas Agricultural Experiment Station Research Reports

A total of 3 spring annual forage varieties were tested for performance at the Southwest Research-Extension Center near Garden City, KS and the Western Kansas Agricul­ture Research Center near Hays, KS, in 2015. Spring crops evaluated included oat and triticale.


Nitrogen Management For Teff Hay Production, D. H. Min, J. L. Moyer Jan 2016

Nitrogen Management For Teff Hay Production, D. H. Min, J. L. Moyer

Kansas Agricultural Experiment Station Research Reports

Fertilization of teff with the ESN source of nitrogen (N) at the higher rates, 100 and 125 lb N/a resulted in increased seasonal forage production. The primary increase occurred in the second of three cuttings.
