A Comparison of Dry Matter Yield and Nutritive Value in the Mixture Swards associated with Festulolium braunii(Festuca pratensis Huds. × Lolium multiflorum Lam.)

Festulolium braunii (Festuca pratensis Huds. × Lolium multiflorum Lam.)를 조합한 혼파초지의 건물수량 및 사료가치 비교

This study was conducted to evaluate the dry matter yield and quality of mixture swards associated with Festulolium braunii(Festuca pratensis Huds. ${\times}$ Lolium multiflorum Lam.). The experiment was arranged in a randomized block design with four mixture types: A(control); orchardgrass(seeding rate 60%) + tall fescue 20% + Kentucky bluegrass 10% + white clover 10%, B; orchardgrass 60% + tall fescue 20% + Festulolium braunii 10% + white clover 10%, C; orchardgrass 60% + Festulolium braunii 20% + Kentucky bluegrass 10% + white clover 10%, and D; orchardgrass 30% + Festulolium braunii 30% + red clover 40%. This study was carried out from Sept. 1996 to Dec. 1998 at Chungnam National University. The DM yield of D mixture type was higher than that of other mixture types(P<0.05). Compared with A(control) mixture type, the DM yield of the B mixture type which substitutes Kentucky bluegrass with Festulolium braunii was higher, but the C mixture type which substitutes tall fescue with Festulolium braunii was lower than that of A(control) mixture type. The content of CP, NDF, ADF, hemi-cellulose and cellulose among mixture types shows no significant differdence. Howerever, the DMD was not significantly different among mixture types in 1997, but the DMD of C and D mixture type were significantly higher than those of other mixture types in 1998(P<0.05). On the otherhand, the yield of CP and DDM in D mixture types was higher than those of the other mixture types(P<0.05). In botanical composition, the Festulolium braunii percentage of B, C and D mixture type with mixed Festulolium braunii wasd highly maintained, especially D mixture type was ranging from 40% to 60% in experimental periods. Following the above result, It is the most favorable mixture method for Festulolium braunii to make use of top grass like orchardgrass + red clover. It is also recommened to substitute bottom grass like Kentucky bluegrass with Festulolium braunii rather than with tall fescue in A(control) mixture type.

본 시험은 충남대학교 농과대학 초지시험포장에서 1996년 9월부터 1998년 12월까지 속간교잡종인 Festulolium braunii (Paulita)의 혼파가능성을 타진하고자, A(control);orchardgrass(seeding rate 60%) + tall fescue 20% + Kentucky bluegrass 10% + white clover 10%, B; orchardgrass 60% + tall fescue 20% + Festulolium braunii 10% + white clover 10%, C; orchardgrass 60% + Festulolium braunii 20% + Kentucky bluegrass 10% + white clover 10%, D; orchardgrass 30% + Festulolium braunii 30% + red clover 40% 등의 4개 혼파조합을 두어 난괴법 4반복으로 건물수량과 품질을 비교하였으며, 얻어진 결과는 다음과 같다. 건물수량은 상번초 위주의 D 혼파조합이 가장 놓았다(P<0.05). Kentucky bluegrass를 Festulolium braunii로 대체한 B 혼파조합이 A 혼파조합에 비하여 건물수량이 높은 결과를 보였으나, tall fescue를 Festulolium braunii로 대체한 C 혼파조합의 건물수량은 A(control) 혼파조합에 비하여 오히려 낮게 나타났다. CP, NDF, ADF, hemi-cellulose 및 cellulose 함량은 혼파조합간에 차이가 없었다. 그러나 건물소화율(DMD)은 97년에는 혼파조합간에 차이가 없었으나, 98년도에는 Festulolium braunii와 두 과목초의 식생비율이 상대적으로 높았던 C와 D의 혼파조합이 A나 B 혼파조합에 비하여 높은 결과를 보였다(P<0.05). CP와 DDM수량은 D 혼파조합이 다른 혼파조합에 비하여 가장 놓았다(P<0.05). 식생비율은 Festulolium braunii를 혼파한 B, C, D 혼파조합에서 Festulolium branunii의 식생비율이 높게 유지되었는데, D 혼파조합은 Festulolium braunii의 식생비율이 40~60%로 가장 높았다. 이상의 결과를 종합해 볼 때 Festulolium braunii는 orchardgrass + red clover와 같은 상번초위주로 혼파하는 것이 가장 좋다고 하겠으며, Festulolium braunii는 상번초의 tall fescue보다는 하번초인 Kentucky bluegrass를 대체하여 혼파하는 것이 바람직하다고 하겠다.
