Excerpt from Forage Performance Trials in New Hampshire Species cannot be accurately compared because they were tested separately, on different sites, with different fertility levels, and in some cases, in different years. Species and varieties should be selected on the basis of local recommendations, soil and field characteristics, and how the forage is to be utilized in the feeding program.
