Description
Liuxing Xu, Guojian Tang, Dan Wu, and Jianguo Zhang report a study, published in 2023, of forage crops sown in winter fallow rice fields in South China. Off season planting can add feed and build soil at once. The team compared five crops grown alone across two winter seasons.
Italian ryegrass gave the highest dry yield and the highest protein yield of the five. Two vetch types and the ryegrass held lower fiber levels than alfalfa and milk vetch. Soil microbe counts shifted with crop choice. The ryegrass plots held the most bacteria and fungi but the fewest nitrogen fixing germs of one type. The work guides crop pick for fallow paddy use.
