Abstract:
Agricultural lands for the production of forage crops in the area of Tuzla canton are limited. The settlement needs in the cattle feed of each area and climate zone used types and varieties that tolerate restrictions on land and climate. The settlement needs in the voluminous feed used types and varieties of forage crops in pure culture and in mixtures.
In our area are not sufficiently advanced species, and in particular mixtures of legumes (vetch and fodder peas) with grains the settlement needs in quality voluminous fodder (green, silage, hay), although there are very favorable conditions. For this purpose, to find existing and new production technologies that will be more rational, more acceptable and economically justifiable.
Aim of this study was to determine the yield of vetch and fodder pea with oats for use as silage in the macro experiment to determine optimum production technology for settlements the needs of the quality voluminous fodder for dairy farms.
Pilot production is set to two most significant localities for the production of milk in the Tuzla Canton, Gradacac and Tuzla.
Research was conducted through field trials in cooperation with agricultural farms engaged in milk production.
Field testing has found that the conditions of production with the use of appropriate cultural practices vetch and fodder peas mixed with oats satisfy the conditions of production and give very high yields of green mass of 29,12-36,87 tons per hectare.
