Title: Effect of sowing rate on seed yield and quality of sainfoin, onobrychus sativa lam
Abstract: We studied effect of sowing rate of sainfoin in two years of investigation (2002 and 2003) in agro ecological conditions of Timocka Krajina. The highest annually seed yield has obtained with 80 cm row to row distance and 40 kg/ha sowing rate (474 kg/ha), than with 50 cm distance and 90 kg/ha sowing rate (448kg/ha), and the lowest with 20 cm distance and 190 kg/ha sowing rate (319kg/ha). Average yield of seed was 201 kg/ha in the first year of investigation (2002), and 635 kg/ha in the second year (2003). Sowing rate has affected investigated germination, 1000 seed weight. Effect of sowing rate on number of hard seed is not significant.
