Effect of Cutting Height on the Winter Survival , Early Spring Yield and Energy Production of Italian ryegrass, Tall fescue and Perennial ryegrass I. Comparison of nonstrural carbohydrate contents, winter survival and early spring yields

월동전 예취 높이가 북방형목초의 월동성 , 이른봄 수량 및 양분생산에 미치는 영향 I. 초종별 예취 높이에 따른 저장탄수화물함량의 변화 , 월동성 및 수량 비교

This experiment was conducted to investigate the effects of the different cutting height on the changes of nonstructural carbohydrate contents, winter survival, spring yields of Italian ryegrass, tall fescue and pernennial ryegrass swards. It was carried out on the experimental field of Livestock Experiment Station, in Suweon, from Sept. 1986 to May 1987. The results obtained are summarized as follows: 1. The changes in soil surface temperature of plots were slightly appeared among grasses. But not appeared with cutting heights. 2. Nonstructural carbohydrate contents of three grasses until wintering showed much more in line with unclipped, 15 cm cutting and 6 cm cutting height. Among three grasses, Italian ryegrass was highest and tall fescue was lowest. Otherwise, wintering survival was not show the difference among grasses and cutting heights. 3. The green yields was much more producted in line with Iralian ryegrass, perennial ryegrass and tall fescue. But in dry matter yields, it was not significantly different among grasses and cutting heights.

본 실험은 가을에 파종하여 월동전 예취 높이를 달리 하였을 때 공식초종의 탄수화물함량변화, 월동성 및 다음해 봄철 수랑에 미치는 영향을 구명하기 위해 초종(Italian ryegrass, tall fescue, perennial ryegrass)을 주구로 하고 월동전 예취 높이 (무예취, 6cm, 15cm)를 세구로 하여 분활구배치 3반복으로 설계하여 수행한 결과는 다음과 같다. 1. 초종별 예취 높이에 따른 목장내 온도변화는 tall fescue > perennial ryegraa > Italian ryegrass 순으로 높게 나타났으나 예취 높이 간에는 일정하지 않았다. 2. 월동전 초종별 평균저장탄수화물 함량은 세초종 모두 무예취>15cm 예취>6cm 예취순으로 나타났으며 초종간에는 Italian ryegrass > perennial ryegrass > tall fescue 순으로 높게 나타났다. 한편 월동율은 초종간 예취 높이에 차가 없었다. 3. 생초수량에 있어서는 초종간에서 Italian ryegrass>perennial ryegraa>tall fescue 순으로 높게 나타나 유의성(P<0.05)이 나타났으나 건물수량에 있어서는 초종간, 예취 높이간 모두 유의성 (P>0.05)이 나타나지 않았다.
