THE 1991 ALABAMA PERFORMANCE COMPARISON OF SMALL GRAIN VARIETIES FOR FORAGE Donald L. Thurlow, W.C. Johnson, and K.M. Glass 1

INTRODUCTION The large number of commercially available varieties of wheat, oats, rye, barley, and triticale makes it difficult for growers~ to selee-t va ites most-suited.. or forage production in f their particular area of the State. Many of the small grain

species and varieties differ in their capability to produce early fall and winter forage for livestock production. Making the

proper selection requires up-to-date, unbiased, reliable information and varietal forage yield by season. Data from tests conducted at 12 locations were used to compile this report and they represent the varied growing conditions around the State for the past 3 years. PROCEDURE The experimental design for the tests was a split plot design with species as the main plot and varieties as subplots. Plots were 5 feet by 20 feet with rows spaced 7 inches apart. cone drill was used to plant all tests. replicated three times in each test. The tests are normally planted in late September to early October. However, in 1990 only the tests at Winfield, Belle Each variety was A

were planted at normal times of late September and early October of 1988 and 1989. The tests were fertilized at planting with 100

figure from these weights was used to calculate forage dry matter per acre. The tests were topdressed in February with 60 pounds N

per acre and clipping was continued until no regrowth occurred in the spring. DATA EXPLANATION Dry matter forage is recorded for seasonal and total yields by locations. The four seasonal periods are: autumn-forage

produced through December; winter-January and February production; early spring-March and early April production; and late spring-production after April 20. DISCUSSION Growing conditions and variety forage performance often vary among locations and years. Multiple-year averages are given here The

to use as a better indicator for performance comparison.

weather conditions were above normal in temperature through December and January. This was followed by a brief cold period

in mid-February which caused severe damage to many varieties of oats, wheat, rye, and triticale. -8-

*If present trends continue, this variety will be removed from the recommended list for forage only next year in the region indicated. **Conditionally recommended on 2 years' data. For those who wish to harvest grain following grazing, varietal selection should be from those varieties recommended either for grain or for forage. Some varieties are recommended for both uses, but if not, the relative importance of forage or grain to the individual farmer should be the major consideration for varietal selection. +Although these varieties produce high total forage yields, early season forage production may be low.
