Description
In the Yoke Branch of the Lithuanian Research Institute of Agriculture, within the frame of the programme for working out the fundamentals of a sound and reliable basis of raw materials for producing feed pellets and wafers along industrial lines, experiments have been performed since 1972 for determining an efficient combination. of fertilization and soil moisture regime of sown grassland on drained low-bog soil. Field and laboratory experiments have shown that in the course of the growing season the optimum moisture regime in the root layer of the drained low-bog soil under investigation sho1,1ld range between the upper limit (which is equivalent to the minimum water capacity) and the lower limit (which is 75-80 % minimum water capacity), with some corrections being applied for the cuts and for the meteorological conditions, and with due consideration of the biological potential of the forage plants concerned.

The productivity of a sown grassland on drained low-bog soil as influenced by soil moisture regime and fertilization
