Six different cutting intervals (30, 60, 90, 120, 150 and 180 days) tested in the study, some characteristicswere measured such as plant height, DM matter yield, metabolisable energy (ME) and relative forage values (RFV).Results indicated that there were significant effects of cutting frequencies on DM yield and some forage qualitycharacteristics of giant king grass, and, ME and RFVs decreased as intercutting interval increased.

Abstract

This study was conducted in Bornova experimental fields of Department of Field Crops, Faculty ofAgriculture, University of Ege, during 2015 and 2016, in order to determine the effect of different cutting intervals onthe dry matter (DM) yield and some quality properties of giant king grass (Pennisetum hybridum). The experimentaldesign was in complete randomized blocks, with three replications. 6 years old, Paraíso cultivar was used as cropmaterial. Six different cutting intervals (30, 60, 90, 120, 150 and 180 days) tested in the study, some characteristicswere measured such as plant height, DM matter yield, metabolisable energy (ME) and relative forage values (RFV).Results indicated that there were significant effects of cutting frequencies on DM yield and some forage qualitycharacteristics of giant king grass, and, ME and RFVs decreased as intercutting interval increased. It was recommendedthat the production of giant king grass using 60 day intervals were the most successful cutting interval regarding theDM yield and acceptable forage quality to the regions with Mediterranean-type climates under irrigation.

Özet

Bu çalışma, 2015 ve 2016 yıllarında, Ege Üniversitesi Ziraat Fakültesi Tarla Bitkileri Bölümü’nün Bornovadeneme tarlalarında, farklı biçim aralıklarının dev kralotu (Pennisetum hybridum)’nda kuru madde (KM) verimi vebazı yem kalite özelliklerine etkisini saptamak amacıyla yürütülmüştür. Üç tekerrürlü olarak düzenlenen denemede, 6yaşındaki Paraíso isimli çeşit kullanılmıştır. Altı farklı biçim aralığı (30, 60, 90, 120, 150 ve 180 gün) test edilençalışmada, bitki boyu, KM verimi, metabolik enerji (ME) ve nispi yem değeri gibi özellikler ölçülmüştür. Sonuçlar,biçim aralıklarının dev kralotunun KM verimi ve bazı yem kalitesi özellikleri üzerinde önemli etkilerinin olduğunu,biçim aralığı arttıkça ME ve nispi yem değerlerinin azaldığını göstermiştir. Akdeniz ikliminin sulu koşullarındayetiştirilen dev kralotunda 60 günde bir yapılan biçim uygulamasının KM verimi ve kabul edilebilir yem kalitesi gözönüne alındığında en başarılı biçim aralığı olduğu saptanmıştır.
