Changes in nutritive value of alfalfa (Medicago × varia T. Martyn) and Festulolium (Festulolium braunii (K. Richt) A. Camus) under drought stress
(Wiley, 2018) Staniak, Mariola; Harasim, Elżbieta
Legume–grass mixtures showed a weaker response to adverse environmental conditions than to monocultures. A yield decrease due to the scarcity of water is well documented, while the impact on the food value is inconsistent. Therefore, we undertook studies to assess the impact of water deficit in the soil on the content of the nutrients in alfalfa and Festulolium grown in monoculture and in mixture. A pot experiment was carried out in 2012–2014 in a completely randomized design, with four replications. The research was carried out at two levels of soil moisture: 70% field water capacity FWC (optimal conditions) and 40% FWC (drought stress). We found that the effect of drought stress on the food value of alfalfa and Festulolium was smaller than on the yield. Water deficit caused a significant yield decrease, the biggest in alfalfa in monoculture. Drought stress significantly reduced the content of crude fibre, the contents of crude protein and crude fat tended to increase. The influence of stress on water-soluble carbohydrates content was not determined. Nutrient content was varied depending on a species. Introducing alfalfa as a component to a mixture with Festulolium caused a significant yield increase and improved the nutritional value of dry matter.
Comparison of maize yield and soil chemical properties under maize (Zea mays L.) grown in monoculture and crop rotation
(Polskie Towarzystwo Magnezologiczne i Uniwersytet Warmińsko-Mazurski w Olsztynie, 2018) Księżak, Jerzy; Bojarszczuk, Jolanta; Staniak, Mariola
Maize is one of the crop species that are increasingly grown in no-tillage systems. This approach is conducive better utilization of the agricultural production areas, which - as well as enabling farmers to obtain high yields - improves an overall organization of the agricultural production and its economic efficiency. The aim of this study was to evaluate the yield of maize grown for grain cultivated in monoculture with two methods of soil pre-sowing preparation, and to compare it to the yield achieved in crop rotation. Another aim was to determine the influence of cultivation simplifications on soil chemical properties.The results were derived from field experiments, which were carried out in two sites in Poland. The study showed that the lowest average maize yield was achieved in monoculture with direct sowing. The yields obtained in the monoculture tested in Baborówko were lower by approximately 17% than in the crop rotation system, while in Grabów the respective difference was about 27%. Grain yields in Baborówko were higher by about 33% compared to Grabów. Abandonment of the mechanical cultivation of maize grown in monoculture caused a decrease in the weight of cobs and in the number of grains per cob. The pH of the soil in which maize was grown was more acidic at the end than prior to the experiment, especially in the treatment with crop rotation. The content of P2O5 in the soil was higher after three years of maize cultivation in the direct sowing or full ploughing systems than before the beginning of the experiment, while a decrease in its concentration was recorded in soil cropped with maize grown in crop rotation. The total amount of nitrogen in the soil decreased regardless of the method of pre-sowing soil preparation. The humus content of soil under maize grown in monoculture with direct sowing or with full tillage did not change, while its amount increased in soil under maize grown in crop rotation with cereals.
Gas exchange parameters in red cover (Trifolium pratense L.) and festulolium (Festulolium braunii (K. Richt) A. Camus) under drought stress
(ALÖKI Kft., 2018) Staniak, Mariola; Księżak, Jerzy; Bojarszczuk, Jolanta; Feledyn-Szewczyk, Beata
Water deficit in the soil is one of the factors that limit the yield of crops, causing great damage to agricultural production. This is the result of genotypic expression as modulated by interaction with the environment. The effect of water deficit on gas exchange parameters of Festulolium hybrid and red clover grown in pure stand and in mixture were studied. Two-factor pot experiment was performed in the completely randomized block method, with four replications. Objects were evaluated at two soil moisture levels: well-watered conditions and drought stress. The studies have shown that all the measured parameters were affected by drought stress. Net photosynthetic rate, transpiration rate and stomatal conductance were significantly lower under drought stress than under well-watered conditions in all treatments. Red clover grown in a pure stand responded to stress the most, while Festulolium hybrid – the least. It was also found that the highest water use efficiency index (WUE) was observed in Festulolium which proves a more economical water management compared to red clover. The mixtures showed smaller yield losses under drought stress compared to red clover grown in pure stand, which indicates their higher suitability to be grown in areas with less rainfall.
Evaluation of mixtures of yellow lupine (Lupinus luteus L.) with spring cereals grown for seeds
(ALÖKI Kft., 2018) Księżak, Jerzy; Staniak, Mariola; Bojarszczuk, Jolanta
Cultivation of legume-cereals mixtures is considered a good agricultural practice in many European countries, especially in organic and low-input farming systems. The aim of the study was to determine the productivity of mixtures of yellow lupine (Lupinus luteus L.) with spring cereals, depending on the species of grain component and its percentage in mixture. Field experiments were carried out in the years of 2011-2013 at the Agricultural Experimental Station Grabów in Poland, using the system of random sub-blocks, with a control treatment, in four replications. The study included three species of cereals: wheat (Tricicum aestivum L.), barley (Hordeum vulgare L.), and triticale (Triticosecale Wittm. ex A. Camus), as well as three percentages of lupine in the weight of sown seeds: 40, 60, 80%. The experiment was conducted on the soil of good wheat complex, class IIIa. The studies showed that the highest yield was obtained from the mixture of yellow lupine with wheat. Increasing the percentage of lupine seeds resulted in lower mixture yields, regardless of cereal species. Lupine grown in mixtures with cereals formed less pods, seeds per pod and per plant and produced a lower seed weight compared with their counterparts grown in pure stands. Legumes grown in mixture with cereals favorably affected morphological characteristics of cereals, contributing to their higher tillering and producing a higher number of grains per plant. The grain of cereals grown in mixtures with lupine had higher contents of total protein and crude fibre than the grain of cereals grown in pure stands.
Evaluation of chemical composition of lentil seeds in sole crop and row intercropped with naked oats in an organic farm
(ALÖKI Kft., 2018) Kraska, P.; Andruszczak, S.; Staniak, M.; Kwiecińska-Poppe, E.; Różyło, K.; Rusecki, H.
The field experiment was conducted to evaluate how row intercropping of the lentil with naked oats as a supporting plant impacts macro- and micronutrient content of two lentil varieties ‘Tina’ and ‘Anita’ as well as a mixture of these two varieties. Additionally, amino acid content and fatty acid composition of lentil seeds were determined. Lentil was sown at a row spacing of 20 and 25 cm. In var. ‘Tina’ seeds, a higher content of K, Ca, Mg, Mn and B was determined than in var. ‘Anita’. ‘Anita’ seeds, in turn, were characterized by a higher content of fat, N, P, Cu, Zn and Fe. Lentil seeds sown at a spacing of 20 cm had a higher content of P, K, Ca, Cu, Zn and B compared to a spacing of 25 cm, but they contained less nitrogen. The presence of oats as a supporting crop deteriorated the quality of lentil seeds by contributing to a reduced content of N, P, K, Cu, Zn, Mn, Fe and B compared to sole cropped lentil. A higher content of C18:0, C18:2, C18:3, C20:0, OMEGA 3, and OMEGA 6 acids was determined in ‘Anita’ seeds. Var. ‘Tina’, in turn, contained more C16:0, C18:1 acids. In ‘Anita’ seeds, the content of most evaluated amino acids was determined to be significantly higher than in ‘Tina’ seeds.
