A new generation of NS forage crop cultivars

Abstract

Until the end of 2008, there have been developed and registered in Serbia 32 cultivars of annual forage legumes and 2 cultivars of forage brassicas. The latest NS cultivar of winter forage pea, Pešter, has yields of between 45 and 50 t ha-1 of green forage and about 10 t ha-1 of forage dry matter. In preliminary testing, the latest NS cultivars of spring feed pea, Partner, Kristal and Dukat, had average grain yields of about 5 t ha-1, with a prominent earliness. The first Serbian field bean cultivars, Gema and Šarac, had a great potential for grain yields, having achieved yields of more than 6 t ha-1 in both preliminary and comparative testing. By further individual selection from the cultivar-population of winter fodder kale NS-Bikovo, there has been developed and in 2007 registered the cultivar Perast, with a great potential for green forage yields, of about 70 t ha-1 in average.

Do kraja 2008. godine, u Institutu za ratarstvo i povrtarstvo su stvorene i u Srbiji priznate 32 sorte jednogodišnjih krmnih mahunarki i 2 sorte krmnih kupusnjača. Najnovija NS sorta ozimog krmnog graška, Pešter, odlikuje se prinosima od između 45 i 50 t ha-1 zelene krme i oko 10 t ha-1 suve materije krme. U preliminarnim ispitivanjima, najnovije NS sorte jarog proteinskog graška, Partner, Kristal i Dukat, ostvarile su prosečne prinose od oko 5 t ha-1, uz izraženu ranostasnost. Prve srpske sorte stočnog boba, Gema i Šarac, odlikuju se velikim potencijalom za prinos zrna, ostvarivši prinose od preko 6 t ha-1 u preliminarnim i komparativnim ispitivanjima. Daljom individualnom selekcijom iz sorte-populacije ozimog stočnog kelja NS-Bikovo, stvorena je i 2007. godine, priznata sorta Perast, koja se odlikuje velikim potencijalom za prinos zelene krme, u proseku od blizu 70 t ha-1.
