Abstract
Forage oats (Avena saliva L. cv. Florida AB113) were grown at Palmerston North and samples throughout the crop's development were dissected into leaf, stem/sheath and head. Digestibility and crude protein of the crop decreased from 85 OJo to 500Jo and 31 OJo to 70Jo, respectively, between the times when leaf sheaths started to lengthen and stems began to form (Feekes scale 4) and flowering (Feekes scale 10.5). The decrease in digestibility was associated with the formation of stem tissue which had a low digestibility (approx. 400Jo) and made up 700Jo of total crop weight at t1owering. Nitrogen fertilizer application had no marked effect on the levels of crude protein in the forage.
