Improved Forage Production and Conservation – Protein Rich Legumes and Legume/grass Mixtures for Adaptation to Climate Changes. Forage production and conservation during periods without drought and the production of drought resistant plants are key for livestock production adaptation to climate change. In the EIP - AGRI project 'Improved Forage Production and Conservation – Protein Rich Legumes and Grass/Clover Mixtures for Adoption to Climate Change', the production and conservation of legumes in pure stand and in their mixtures with grasses, both non fertilised with N, were compared to the production with N fertilised pure stands of grasses. The results show that the use of legumes in pure stand and in mixtures with grasses is very appropriate for the production and conservation of protein-rich forage. A mixture production with a high proportion of legumes is more reliable. Such mixtures result in comparable dry matter yields to legumes in pure sowing and silages of high quality.
