Abstract:
Under arid and semi-arid environments of the south Mediterranean sea,
characterized by low and erratic rainfall, the use of low amount of water
efficiently receipted in plant and animal production is very paramount to
producers. Under such growth conditions, plant production is low and
irregular because of the effect of water and heat stresses. To minimize the
effect of these constraints, despite the low range of the species to be adopted,
crop diversification and animal production were targeted. A study comparing
forage performances of barley, triticale, and their associations with pea was
undertaken during the 2015/2016 cropping season. The results showed that
barley yielded best in sole crop than when intercropped with pea. Triticale
intercropped with pea exhibited higher forage yield, 11% productivity gain
equivalent at 6q/ha, and improved forage quality. This association could serve
as an alternative to fallow reduction. These preliminary results indicated that,
under semi-arid conditions, forage diversification is possible and some aspects
of this diversification need to be investigated.
