The experiment was conducted on Adnan Menders University, Agriculture Faculty of farm under the Aegean Ecological Conditions in Western Part of Turkey (Koçarlı/Aydın) in 2019 and 2020. In addition to corn and quinoa parcels, 3 different mixtures (25% quinoa - 75% corn, 50% quinoa - 50% corn and 75% quinoa - 25% corn) were determined. Field experiment was carried out in a randomized block design with three blocks as replication. Periodic (approximately 20 daily) measurements (plant height, stem diameter and chlorophyll amount) were made during plant growing period. Green and dry grass yield values and some silage quality measurements (ADF, NDF, protein, fiber and ash rate) were made at harvest date when the corn plant reached the dough maturity stage period (1/4 milk line). As a result of the study, it was determined that corn has serious adverse effects on quinoa during the plant growing and quinoa had also some negative effects on corn. None of the mixture treatments (25%, 50% or 75% quinoa) containing quinoa plant showed as high green and dry grass yield values as 100% corn. However, all mixtures containing quinoa have shown that higher quality grass (especially high protein rate) can be produced. Moreover, ADF and NDF values obtained from the mixtures also showed some positive changes. So, the results showed that quinoa can increase the quality of feed some amount in the mixtures. It can necessary to do more studies on the subject in the future.
