Özet

The aim of this study was to determine the effects of different mixture rates and harvest periods on the herbage quality of triticale (xTriticosecale Wittmack) and forage pea (Pisum sativum L.) intercrops. The research was carried out in Diyarbakir province of Turkey during the winter vegetation period of 2016-2017. The research was carried out in randomized block design in split parcels in which the harvest periods and mixture ratios formed the main parcels and sub-parcels, respectively. In the study, all harvests were conducted at spike and milking period of triticale. The mixing ratios were 100% forage peas (FP), 100% triticale (T), 75% FP + 25% T, 50% FP + 50% T, 25% FP + 75% T. As the harvest periods delayed, crude ash, crude protein, digestible dry matter, dry matter consumption and relative feed value decreased where Acid Detergent Fiber (ADF) and Neutral Detergent Fiber (NDF) rates increased. As the proportion of forage pea in the mixture increased, the ratio of crude protein and ADF increased, while the rate of digestible dry matter decreased. The spiking period of triticale was found to be the suitable harvest period. Sowing mixture at 25% FP + 75% T was superior obtaining good ADF, digestible dry matter and relative feed value. In the case of favorable NDF and crude protein ratios, 75% FP + 25% T proved to be superior to other mixture combinations.
