1 2007 Michigan Grass Variety Trials Report Richard Leep 1 and Dietz 2 December 1, 2007 Comments on the 2007 Growing Season Michigan weather, once again, presented challenges to many producers. Hard frost in mid-april resulted in damage on newly emerged shoots and foliage in established stands and delayed planting activities for several crops statewide. This late frost resulted in lower first cutting yields for most forage producers in Michigan. The south-central portion of the state received excess rainfall in May and early-june, which resulted in increased levels root rot diseases, reduced effectiveness of herbicides, and stand loss in poorly drained areas. Most of the state experienced dry conditions beginning in July and continuing until mid-august. Northern areas of the state received below-average rainfall from late-april to September. The northwest region was the hardest-hit, where for some producers; a single cutting of hay was all that was obtained. Forage variety trial yields were lower than normal statewide. Growing season precipitation amounts are presented for each location in Table 1. Grass variety trials are seeded with a Carter Nursery seeder in plot lengths of 15 ft. or more at a width of 3 or 6 ft into a conventionally prepared seedbed. Species evaluated include: brome, Perennial ryegrass, hybrid ryegrass, Italian ryegrass, festulolium, orchardgrass, timothy, Kentucky bluegrass and. Weeds are controlled with herbicide when necessary and soil tests are taken and amendments are made annually. Hay trials, both annual and perennial (East Lansing, location 2) are harvested when leaf lengths of 12+ inches or just prior to boot stage, and grazing trials (Lake City, location 1) are harvested at 8+inches using Angus steers. Grazing trials (plots are mowed following grazing events if grass residual heights are greater than 6 inches. Nitrogen is applied in the form of urea (early spring) or ammonium sulfate at a rate of 50 lbs of actual N/acre at green-up and following each harvest. Palatability ratings (a visual rating of preference based on consumption by beef cattle) are reported for Lake City on a scale of 1 to 5 (5= >80% of plot consumed). The 2007 annual ryegrass trial was seeded in East Lansing on Apr. 24 and the perennial grass trial was seeded on May 7. The Kentucky bluegrass block of the perennial variety trial was reseeded Oct. 5 due to poor stands. Lake City (44.35 N) in Central Northern Lower Michigan Lake City (location 1) is 130 miles north of East Lansing and has colder winters than East Lansing and less snow than Chatham. Trials here are managed as intensively grazed pastures with nitrogen fertilizer applications at green-up and following grazing events. Persistence under livestock hoof pressures and repeated, close-grazing events are monitored. Trials at Lake City 1 Forage Agronomist, Crop and Soil Sciences, Michigan State Univ. 2 Research Assistant, Crop and Soil Sciences, Michigan State Univ.
2 are usually grazed three to four times per year. Visual assessments of animal preference among the cultivars in the trials are made following grazing events are presented along with yield data in tables 2 and 3 for the 2005 and 2006 seedings. East Lansing (42.72 N) in Southern Lower Michigan Five hay grass variety trials (4 perennial & 1 annual) were harvested at East Lansing in southern lower-michigan (location 2). East Lansing trials are located at the Crop and Soil Sciences Agronomy Farm. Four cuttings are normally obtained from the grass trials at this location. Grass plots are blocked by species and an entire block is harvested at the same time so maturity will vary; however, the goal is to harvest in the boot stage. The 2007 perennial trial was harvested three times (table 7) and annual variety trial was harvest four times (table 8). Yield data are reported in tables 4-6 for established perennial trials. Statistics Data are analyzed using PROC GLM or MIXED in SAS v. 8.2 software (Cary, NC). Means and Fischer s Least Significant Difference (LSD) are reported at the bottom of each column. The LSD is used to compare values within a column and is the minimum difference between two values for a real difference to exist. The alpha level for the LSD in these trials was 0.05 or 5%, which means, we are 95% certain that values differing by more than the LSD are not due to chance.
