Abstract
This study was conducted to determine the changes in hay yield and quality during the grazing season of a pasture in Kediyünü village of Usak province. The experiment was established in a randomised complete block design with three replications. In the research, 50 square meters of covered areas were established in 3 different regions representing pasture area. Starting from May 5, three samples were taken from the ungrazed areas, every 15 days during the grazing season, with one square meter of quadrat. The hay yield, crude protein (CP) ratio, CP yield, acid detergent fiber (ADF), neutral detergent fiber (NDF), total digestible nutrients (TDN) and relative feed value (RFV) were determined in the research. According to results of this research, the highest hay yield was determined on 5 June, while the lowest yield was obtained on 5 July. Crude protein yield increased until May 20, then began to decrease. During the grazing season, crude protein content, total digestible nutrients and relative feed value decreased, while ADF and NDF values increased.
