SELECTING THE RIGHT ALFALFA QUALITY
FALL DORMANCY (FD) • Fall dormancy is defined as the reduction in alfalfa top growth in the fall due to decreasing temperatures and shorter day lengths. • Fall dormancy scores range from 1 to 11, with the lower numbers exhibiting less growth (fall dormant varieties) and the high numbers showing more growth in the fall (non-dormant varieties). • A rating of 1.0 indicates alfalfa will go dormant early in the fall and green-up late in the spring. • A rating of 11.0 indicates alfalfa will go dormant late in the fall and green-up early in the spring. • Rocky Mountain and High Plains Region varieties are typically values of 3, 4 or 5.
WINTER HARDINESS (WH) • A measure of the alfalfa plant’s ability to survive the winter without injury. • Scale of 1 to 6. • A rating of 1 indicates High Survivability, while 6 indicates Low Survivability. • Rocky Mountain and High Plains Region varieties are typically no higher than 3.0.
IMPROVING SUMMER ANNUAL FORAGE
BMR TECHNOLOGY Brown Mid Rib increases digestibility of the stem fibers in Forage Sorghums by reducing the quantity of indigestible lignin. Lignin content is decreased approximately 40-60% depending upon environmental conditions. This reduction in lignin increases cellulose and hemi cellulose content; both are more digestible than lignin. Because lignin is a structural component of the stem, its reduction will result in stems that are somewhat softer and more limber. BMRs can equal corn in milk production per ton for dairy cattle.
MS TECHNOLOGY Male Sterile hybrids will not produce a grain head unless a foreign pollen source is available. Male sterility offers high yields and has high levels of structural carbohydrates in stalks and leaves for improved forage digestibility and overall energy content under most conditions. Increases standability since it will not cannibalize the stalk as a process of grain fill. An excellent choice for baling.
