Description
Production of forage chop from a clovertimothy mixture is efficient when harvesting the forage between the shooting of clover (35 to 40 cm stand height) and mid-flowering. For high-temperature drying, each vegetative stage of the plants requires a clearly defined regime. When establishing formulas for complete-ration feed briquets containing clovertimoihy chop harvested before clover budding, the protein/carbohydrate ratio must be balanced by supplementing the ration with 30 p.c. barley meal and 29 p.c. straw; when the mixture was harvested during budding, phosphorus supplementation (one p.c. monocalcium phosphate) is necessary, whilst the mixture harvested during flowering has to be supplemented with protein and mineral additions or 30 p.c. standard mixed feed.
