Abstract Leys are an important part of northern European livestock production, particularly for ruminants since monogastric animals limited in their ability to digest the fibres forage. Crop fractionation methods a promising option make forages more beneficial and decrease amount imported protein feed. A leaf stripping harvesting technique was evaluated at Röbäcksdalen Sweden mixed grass‐clover leys over 2 years. The PremAlfa Mini stripper (Trust'ing‐Alf'ing, Nantes, France) worked well...

Abstract The need for better understanding and conservation of wild plant resources with potential domestication or utilization in crop improvement has been highlighted recent years. Botanical such as herbaria, databases, floras offer an information-rich platform from which to select species interest based on desirable traits. To demonstrate the these resources, wild, native forage legumes were screened inclusion northern Swedish grassland agricultural systems (leys). poor persistence red...

The large-scale import of soybean products into the EU decreases self-sufficiency livestock production. fractionation grassland forage crops presents an opportunity to locally produce protein-rich feed for monogastrics. Two promising methods, twin-screw press juicing and leaf stripping, were evaluated in parallel field experiments established Norway Sweden compare nutrient composition yield resulting biorefined residual fractions. clearest delineation between methods was ash-free neutral...

Abstract Grains of domesticated grasses (Poaceae) have long been a global food source and constitute the bulk calories in human diet. Recent efforts to establish more sustainable agricultural systems focused part on development herbaceous, perennial crops. Perennial plants extensive root that stabilize soil absorb water nutrients at greater rates than their annual counterparts; consequently, are important potential candidates for grain domestication. While most contemporary grass...
