According to the average of two years results, 7.5 kg/da N+P2O5 application in natural range increased green herbage yield from 148.33 kg/da to 732.58 kg/da, dried herbage yield from 38.62 kg/da to 182.51 kg/da, crude protein content from 5.87 % to 8.00 %. On the other hand, green herbage yields of mixtures in artifi cial range varied between 1887.50-3201.67 kg/da, dried herbage yields between 600.09-866.13 kg/da and crude protein contents between 11.94-13.55 %}, number={1}, publisher={Anatolia Bilim Akademisi}
