Harvest of green willow biomass for feed – effects of harvest time and frequency on yield, nutrient concentration, silage quality and regrowth
This study investigated the effects of harvest time during the growth season on yield, quality and regrowth of willow. An eight-year-old willow field was harvested in April 2017, and biomass was harvested either once during 2017 on five dates from 13 June to 27 October, harvested twice in June and O...
