Description
The objective was to test the efficiency of different species for interseeding in relation to forage and crude protein production. Avalability of forage and crude protein were evaluated every spring, after 60 days rest. The design was a split-split plot: in an Argiudol soil legumes were the whole plot, grasses subplot and fertilizer subsubplot. Dry matter accumulation did not show any difference in relation to treatments in three of four springs. Crude protein showed differences in three of four springs, being interseeding better than control. Interseeding of old pastures resulted in a good practice to keep the balance legume-grass, as a way to lengthen the period of utilization.
