Abstract

Intermediate wheatgrass yielded 519 and 446 kg seed ha^-1 in years one and two after establishment. Autumn grazing increased seed yield compared with post-harvest residue removal or chopping. Inter-seeding legumes (alfalfa (Medicago sativa), sweet clover (Melilotus officinalis), and white clover (Trifolium repens) did not affect intermediate wheatgrass seed production.
