| Medicago sativa, a kind of perennial herb plant with vertical type, is cultivated withlong history, widely distributed, plant aera largely. It is "the king of pasture" due to itshigh quality, wide suitabilty, and the abundant nutrition. The young clover can be used asthe good protein, the vitamin complement feed of animals and birds, and the milk cowcan increase the production of milk if fed by young clover. With the development ofscience, the prospect of products made from clover is inspiring and its potential market ishuge. The different species of Medicago in May 2005 in the low latitude and high altitudeof the Wumeng Mountain area were cultivated carrying on trial demonstration cultivation,adopt a list of appropriation to make, the food grass set make three various plant the mode,express highly in the different elevation to investigate various modes of Medicago toplant various modes of Medicago and can obtain all higher living creature yield and plantthe result, resolve the not enough problem of protein and animal feed resources of the cityof liu pan shui, reduce the funds inside of the province that enters to buy the proteinanimal feed raw material to result in outside from the province to outflow, push theadjustment that the city of liu pan shui plants the structure and promote the local grassindustry turn the development, and resolve" three agricultures" problems. 3500-5500kg,3000-4500 kg,3500 kg purple flower clover of fresh grass and 50-80 kg of corn canbe harvested each 667 m~2 respectively; Only average each 667 m~2 clover purple flowercan obttain income of 350-550 yuan, The yield of Monoculture of Shengshi species atsame altitude was the most, and the interplanting and intercrop was followed in turn.The yield of Monoculture of the Shenshi species was the most with the different speciesat the same altitude, Victoria and Algonguin was followed in turn. The result showed thatplanting Medicago compared to only harvesting the corn seed can raise actually 5 timeseconomic performances, and the economic performance was very obvious. The seedlingsof intercrop survive high rate, high and strongly. The average height of the seedlings ofnon-intercrop and intercrop was 80cm and 150cm respectively more than a year.The results of feeding pigs, cows, and birds by the purple clover showed significance. Thenumber of pigling of each nest increased 2-4 after feeding the native sow with Medicago,which made the sow's physical body condition good and the hair shining. The double-months weight of every pigling increased 2.2-3.5kg which can increase theincome of 26.4-42.0 yuan, and the net income was 19.68yuan each one.The weight of a native 5 years old Guanling scalper (fatty bull) increased 102.5-110.2kgfed by the purple clover after a period (3 month), which can increase income 922.5-991.8yuan, and the net income was 589.32yuan each one, furthermore, the hair color wasshining. It was thus clear that the trial demonstration of Medicago implemented in thelawn agricultural system in the poor region of Liu Pan Shui was a valid path for helpingthe farmers of the mountain area to take offthe poverty and amass fortune. |
