Effect of maturity on chemical composition of leguminous forage plants
1937
Pieters, A.J.
In this brief review of the problem, it has been shown that the valuable food constituents are present not only in greater proportion in the earlier stages of legumes, but that they are more digestible. The fact that at a later stage the natural increase in organic matter will carry with it a greater production of nutrients per acre does not necessarily mean that these larger amounts will have a greater feeding value. From the farmer's standpoint the important consideration is net returns per acre, taking due account not only, of returns in any one year but for a term of years. The result may vary depending on whether be feeds his own produce or sells it at the market price per ton.
