Comparison of the Plant Heights and Relative Feed Values of Triticale and Vetch Mixtures Produced by a Hydroponic System

Abstract

This study was carried out to determine the effects of adding vetch seeds to triticale seeds at different ratios (100% triticale, T100; 90% triticale + 10% vetch, TV10; 80% triticale + 20% vetch, TV20; 70% triticale + 30% vetch TV30) on the shoot and root lengths values and relative feed value of green fodder produced by a hydroponic system. For this purpose, two cereal types (Triticale and vetch), six harvest times (3, 4, 5, 6, 7 and 8 days) and addition of liquid fertilizers (LF-; LF+) were evaluated to determine green fodder production performance. The group harvested TV20% with liquid fertilizer provided the highest triticale shoot height and root length values. The liquid fertilizer (P=0.004), days (P<0.001) and their interaction (P=0.004) significantly influenced the triticale shoot height value. The lowest shoot height and root length values of triticale were obtained in the T100% group. The vetch shoot height and root length values had the greatest improvements for the TV20% group with liquid fertilizer and the least for the TV10% group without liquid fertilizer. The highest value was found in the group of TV20% (P<0.01) with liquid fertilizer, and the lowest value was in the group of T100% without liquid fertilizer in terms of the relative feed value (RFV) of green fodder. As a result, the TV20% group with liquid fertilizer showed better green fodder performance than the other groups.
