Özet
This research
was conducted in Van located
Eastern Anatolia Region
of Turkey for 3 years from 2001-2003 . In the research, twelve alfalfa cultivars
(Bilensoy, Elc Kayse MA-324, Prosementi, Desica, MA-414 , Gara, Prista, Hemedan, P-5693 and MA-525)
were used as treatment material
. Experimental design
was completely block with three replication. As a result of experiment, Bilensoy, Desica, Elci, MA-414, MA-324 and MA-525 cultivars produced
more forage and crude protein
yield compared to the other six alfalfa
cultivars. Clearly, the results
indicated that Bilensoy
and Desica cultivars had the highest
crude protein rate and crude protein yield;
therefore, they seemed more promising in forage production in the area.
