Forage / Silage Crop Trials
20242024 Stamp Seeds Spring Crop Forage Trial
The forage samples from our demo plots included barley, soft wheat, triticale and oats. We cut out sections of the plots for yield and quality to compare each variety to each other. Each plot is taken at soft dough. Barley was taken off August 8,2024 Soft wheat, triticale and oats were all taken off August 23rd,2024 Blair Balog our Seed Specialist has compiled the spring crop forage information in a chart for you to make comparisons from variety to variety and crop type. This in not replicated or scientific data, just side by side on small scale as we cut a 3'x10' spot and sent a sample to Down to Earth Labs to get these results. The plots received a PGR at proper timing this year, barley was still lodged at time of forage cutting, soft wheat and triticale were all standing at time of forage cutting. FB 23618, FB 23619, TR22669 are all experimental lines from the Olds College Field Crop Development Center and not currently licensed in the marketplace.

2023 Stamp Seeds spring crop forage trial
We took forage samples from our demo plots which included barley, soft wheat and triticale. We cut sections out by hand for yield as well as TDN, all samples were taken at the soft dough stage.
Barley was taken on July 26th, 2023
Soft wheat & triticale were taken on August 8th, 2023.

These plots were sprayed too late with a PGR which caused staging issues as well as re-tillering, these issues affected forage yields across the entire plot as each variety has different response to that type of stress.

2022 Stamp Seeds Spring Crop Yield Trial Data
We sampled our demo plot field with our spring cereals including soft wheats, barley, oats on it. We have taken silage samples for yield and also TDN and more at the medium dough timing for each of these spring crops.
Below this chart we have the fall crops silage data from this same field.

The CDC Arborg Oat data was not in the plots, but was near by from our main field as our filler crop, so may not be as comparable. CDC Renegade Barley was at a lower use rate and farther away from the plots so also may not be directly comparable. We missed taking the AC Sadash VB sample.
The plots were seeded April 28th, 2022 on irrigation and the wheats were seeded at 40 plants per square foot and the oats and barley at 30 plants (other than the CDC Renegade at about 20)
