Evaluation of Some Wheat Cultivars as Roughage

Evaluation of Some Wheat Cultivars as Roughage

This study was carried out during the growing season of 2015-2016 to determine the roughage value of some wheat cultivars. In the study, 3 bread wheat (Pehlivan, Aras, Cham-6) and 5 durum wheat (Eminbey, Bakrajo-1, Ovanto, Simito and Acsad-65) cultivars were used as plant material. Experiments were conducted in randomized complete blocks design with three replications. Plant height, green herbage yield, dry herbage yield, crude protein ratio, protein yield, acid detergent fiber, neutral detergent fiber, calcium, magnesium, phosphor and potassium ratios were investigated. Plant heights between 70.3 and 81.8 cm, green herbage yields between 694.0 and 2560.0 kg da-1, dry herbage yields between 237.4 and 824.9 kg da-1, crude protein ratios between 10.60 and 12.85%, protein yields between 29.6 and 98.5 kg da-1, acid detergent fiber ratios between 30.78 and 34.92%, neutral detergent fiber ratios between 51.86 and 57.26%, calcium ratios between 0.36 and 0.47%, magnesium ratios between 0.11 and 0.17%, phosphor ratios between 0.35 and 0.38% and potassium ratios between 1.61 and 2.22% have changed. In the study, Aras and Acsad-65 cultivars for high green herbage, dry herbage and protein yields; Simito and Bakrajo-1 cultivars for low acid detergent fiber, neutral detergent fiber ratios and high calcium and magnesium contents were better results as roughage at wheat cultivars.
