A fiel trial was conducted at the Carillanca Experiment Station, near Temuco, Chile, during the 1965- 1969 growing seasons. The purpose of this investigation was to study under rainfed conditions the effect of wheat in the year of seeding and the following year, upon red clover (Trifolium pratense L.) and short rotation ryegrass (Lolium perenne L. x Lolium multiflorum Lam) seedlings established under wheat, in fall and spring, and reciprocally, the effect of the two forage species in wheat grain production. Wheat variety Cappelle Desprez was seeded at the rate of 150 Kg/ha in rows spaced at 0,20 m and 0,40, in mixture with red clover and short rotation ryegrass, and alone. |
