White lupin: An alternative to pea in oat-legume forage mixtures grown in Newfoundland
"Peas-oats-vetch" is a traditional annual forage crop in Newfoundland, cut as needed in late fall, and fed as fresh feed. We tested the potential of increasing yield biomass and N concentration of the annual forage mixture through the substitution of white lupin (Lupinus albus L.) for pea...

"Peas-oats-vetch" is a traditional annual forage crop in Newfoundland, cut as needed in late fall, and fed as fresh feed. We tested the potential of increasing yield biomass and N concentration of the annual forage mixture through the substitution of white lupin (Lupinus albus L.) for pea (Pisum sativum L.) in 1990 and 1991. On mineral soils, lupin and pea were seeded at rates of 10, 20, 40, and 80 seeds m −2 in 132 seeds m −2 oat (Avena sativa L.) mixtures, and compared with pure-stand oat. Oat-lupin and oat-pea mixtures, planted at similar seeding rates, were also harvested at weekly intervals between 8 and 14 wk after planting. Oat-lupin, oat-pea and pure-stand oat were evaluated in an additional experiment on peat soils.
