Subject Food legumes
 
Description Central to the challenge of feed scarcity in hills of Uttarakhand, trials were conducted in hill state of Uttarakhand
India in two location of Tehri Garhwal and Pithoragarh districts for fodder grain and residue yields under different
management. Fodder quality of the feed was analyzed using proximate principles. Results revealed that, the improved
variety BHS 380 performed better in terms of fodder, grain and straw yields. Location wise, the performance in terms
of grain and straw yield was commendable in Pithoragarh compared to Tehri Garhwal. In Tehri Garhwal BHS 380
produced substantially higher quantities of grain (4.78t-ha), straw (7.31t-ha) besides 3.78t-ha of green fodder
during lean season, likewise in Pithorgarh district BHS 380 yielded higher quantity of grain (7.23 t-ha) and
straw(13.80t-ha) besides 1.28 t-ha of green fodder during lean season, under delayed sowing in December.
Crude protein in green fodder of BHS 380 was more than the local and can result in quality feeding in fodder
scarce season for livestock.
