This experiment was carried out to know adaptability and forage production and quality of corn and corn + soybean intercropping for silage at paddy field in Chungnam province. growth, forage production and quality of silage corn was higher in case of corn and soybean intercropping than that of corn single planting at paddy field. The height of stem of Kwangpyongok and Sword bean intercropping was somewhat lower than Kwangpyongok single planting and higher at ear height and stem diameter. Fresh yield of Kwangpyongok and Sword bean intercropping was the highest as 45.8 tons per ha among corn monoculture, corn + soybean intercropping. The dry yield of Kwangpyongok and Sword bean intercropping at paddy field was the highest as 20.5 tons per ha among corn monoculture and corn + soybean intercropping. The result of this study showed that 'Kwangpyongok and Sword bean intercropping' had good forage productivity and quality of silage compared with corn monoculture, corn and common bean intercropping.
This study was conducted to test the effect different forages and feeding rates on generation of main greenhouse gases like carbon dioxide and methane in Hanwoo cows. Feeds were given twice per day at 09:00 and 17:00. Greenhouse gases were measured during 12 hours using Mamos-300 from 09:00 to 21:00. The results indicated that the generation of greenhouse gases under different forage categories and feeding rate were significantly different (p<0.05). Whole greenhouse gas tended to decrease in the high concentrate diets. The high timothy supplement ation group showed less amounts of carbon dioxide generation comparing with others group while high silage supplementation resulted more methane generation comparing with other treatments. On the afternoon test, carbon dioxide generation was significantly lower different (p<0.05) in timothy treatment comparing with others.
