Abstract
(...) Dry matter yield was 5.3-34.8% less in unsprayed plots than in sprayed plots at the five harvests in 1986 and 12.9-37.2% less in 1987. Annual differences in yield between sprayed and unsprayed plots were 18.6% (1.69 Mg/ha) in 1986 and 24.8% (2.64 Mg/ha) in 1987. Percentages of total digestible nutrients and acid detergent fiber did not differ in alfalfa harvested from treated or untreated plots. Mean adjusted crude protein did not differ with respect to fungicide treatment or harvest in 1986 but was greater in unsprayed plots (22.1%) than in plots sprayed with fungicide (20.6%) in 1987
