Effects of stage of harvest on yield and quality traits in Tall fescue (Festuca arundinace)
Tall fescue (Festuca arundinacea Schreb) is one o f the main perennial grasses that growsnaturally in temperate pasture and rangelands in north and west o f Iran.It is used f or hay p roduction and grazing by livestock.Tall f escue grows in Iran at elevations o f 1200m to 2900m in areas receiving more than 300 mm annual p recipation ( Rechinger, 1970 ).Maturity stage at harvest is the most important f actor determining f orage quality in grass species.This study was designed to determine the e f f ect harvest date had on f orage dry matter ( DM) yield and three quality traits : dry matter digestibility (DMD), water soluble carbohydrate ( WSC), and crude p rotein ( CP) in Tall f escue (Festuca arundinace Schreb).
