Variety traits
Lotus corniculatus L.
The dry matter content in birdsfoot trefoil serves as a key measure of productivity and a basis for assessing feed nutritional value, including the concentration of protein, fiber, and tannins.
In the reference 8 varieties crop Bird's-foot trefoil, where this is mentioned in the description.
The dry matter content in the green mass of birdsfoot trefoil under production and experimental conditions is approximately 25%. Dry matter yield, defined as the total harvest per unit area, varies in the range from 4.5 to 9.0 tons per hectare depending on agricultural practices and regional conditions.
This trait is the calculation basis for determining feed value, as the content of protein, fiber, and condensed tannins in this crop is standardized specifically in terms of dry matter. A high dry matter content at the time of mowing simplifies the hay and haylage harvesting processes, reducing nutrient losses.
