Nutritive Value of Botanical Composition Under Management Practices in Pirincci Pasture

Abstract

A compatible topography had been built in the end of the land consolidation, land Filling, terracing and staging processes and then the planting procedure started. In the matter of filling it is necessary to build a structure friendly to the environment, convenient for plant breeding and maintaining the vegetation in the future periods. To achieve these, first cleaning the greenstuffs on the ground to hinder landslide during and/or after land filling are taken. Then excavated land is dumped after the ground is firmed by stones and pieces of concrete. It is noted that, there is no water and environment contaminating components (aspest, chemical and medical waste etc.) in the land. This study shows that improved and native pasture nutritive value differ according to differences land filling, terracing and staging processes, fertilization or planting seed. Improved management practices, such as fertilizing, forage seeding, cutting, may have a crucial role in hay production and quality crude protein, ash, crude fibre and calcium ratio increased by fertilization in the improved pasture. In the experiment, the fertilization increased the contents of proteins, ash, calcium. Phosphorus content in improved pasture was less than or equal to that of the native pasture while crude fibre content in improved pasture was more than or equal to that of the native pasture.
