Abstract

In the first series of the studies conducted in 2003–2004 at the Research Station Pawłowice, belonging to Wrocław Agricultural University, the dry matter yield of Persian clover (Trifolium resupinatum L.) and Westervold ryegrass (Lolium multiflorum var. wersterwoldicum Wittm.) sown as pure stand and in mixture, as well as That of a mixture pea + spring triticale was evaluated. Different levels of nitrogen fertilization were applied. In 2004–2005, the residual effects of the above factors on yielding of oats grown in traditional and reduced tillage systems were examined. Oat plants were cut the at milk-dough maturity to make silage or be fed to animals directly. In the reduced tillage system, the plough was replaced with a cultivator. The elimination of ploughing made the growth conditions at the beginning of vegetation worse, and a number of plants on 1 m2 was smaller by 44%, as compared to that following the full tillage. Similar differences were found in the yield of dry matter of oats, which decreased from over 1100 g (traditional tillage) to 639 g/1 m2 (reduced tillage). After Persian clover sown as pure stand, as well as after pea-triticale mixture, the plant density was higher. In the plot where Persian clover in pure stand was applied, the conditions were favorable throughout the vegetation period and the yield of dry matter of oats was higher by 21–26% than in the plots where the other fore crops were used.
