When establishing alfalfa (Medicago sativa L.) stands there are two primary options to minimize weed encroachment: the use of herbicides or the use of annual companion crops. Companion crops will minimize weed development during the establishment year, provide more harvestable forage biomass, and reduce risks of erosion. In Quebec, smallgrain cereals are traditionally used as companion crops but other species such as Sudangrass and ryegrass are now also available. However, such species haven't been evaluated locally as companion crops for the establishment of alfalfa. This project had for objective to determine the effects of establishing alfalfa with various companion crop species on forage yield and quality, and alfalfa establishment and ...
