Effects of Soil Moisture Regime on Yield, Nutrient Content, and Evapotranspiration for Three Annual Forage Species1

O. L. Bennett, B. D. Doss, D. A. Ashley, V. J. Kilmer and E. C. Richardson2

Synopsis: Yields of Sudangrass, Starr millet, and Sart sorghum and evapotransipiration rates increased as available soil moisture level increased. Sart sorghum produced highest yield at all three moisture regimes. In general, nitrogen and potassium concentrations in plant tissue decreased with increasing soil moisture, but total uptake was usually higher with irrigation.

1 Contribution from the Southern Branch, Soil and Water Conservation Research Division, ARS, USDA, in cooperation with the Agronomy and Soils Department, Auburn University Agricultural Experiment Station.

2 Soil Scientists, USDA, Thorsby, Ala.; former Soil Scientist, USDA, ARS, Beltsville, Md., (now Assistant to Manager, Office of Agricultural and Chemical Development, TVA, Wilson Dam, Ala.) ; and Research Agronomist, USDA, Cartersville, Ga.
