摘要

Two experiments were designed to provide practical guidelines to improve the effective use of browse plants as ruminant feed, especially during dry summers. The effects of planting stock and cutting management on forage yield and quality of Tangoiohybrid willow (Salix matsudana X S. alba), Kinuyanagi willow (Salix kinuyanagi) and erect dorycnium (Dorycnium rectum), a small leguminous shrub, were determined over one summer from 1- and 3-year-old trees. Experiment 1 was arranged as a 2X2 factorial with 2 species and 2 planting stocks in 5 randomized complete blocks. Experiment 2 was also arranged as a split-plot design with cutting heights allocated to main plots and species X frequency to sub-plots in 3 randomized complete blocks. At the hill country site (Ballantrae), the yields of Tangoio (66 g DM/tree) and Kinuyanagi (27 g DM/tree) were low, owing probably to the low soil nutrient status and the harsh climatic conditions. Poor regrowth after the summer harvest at Ballantrae suggested that willows can be utilized only once during the growing season in such environments. At the lowland site (Aokautere), Tangoio was higher yielding (P<0.05) than Kinuyanagi, with erect dorycnium the lowest yielding. Erect dorycnium was ineffective as drought fodder in the Manawatu owing to its relatively low yield. Tree forage digestibility and total nitrogen content were higher in Tangoio than Kinuyanagi (P<0.05) but were not affected by planting stock type and cutting height. Harvesting twice during the growing season increased the edible forage yield by 27%. Total condensed tannin content was higher in Kinuyanagi than Tangoio, a possible disadvantage. Unrooted stem cuttings were as productive as rooted cuttings and are cheaper to establish. It is concluded that Tangoio and Kinuyanagi have potential as drought fodder in addition to their traditional roles in soil conservation and rehabilitation.
