Abstract

Adequate supply of quality forage is the basic necessity for sustainable livestock production. In India, supply of forage has always been a limiting factor for enhancing livestock production. The gap in feed and forage supply, however, can effectively be reduced through integrated crop management practices with greater emphasis on nutrient management in forage crops. Due to region, season and specific nature of forages nutrient management is dynamic in nature. The paper reviews different nutrient management aspects in annual and perennial cultivated forage crops, range grasses and legumes, forage-based intercropping and cropping systems and rotations.
