Field, greenhouse, growth chamber and laboratory experiments
evaluated factors affecting establishment, survival and production
of birdsfoot trefoil (Lotus corniculatus L.) and alfalfa (Medicago
sativa L.)
Field studies investigated the effects of a barley companion
crop, seedling year harvest management and nitrogen and phosphorus
fertilization upon stands, survival and subsequent production...

Columbia Basin region of Oregon.
Two groups of treatments, including consecutive cuts at
the same stage of maturity and cuts made at varying maturities,
were imposed...
