This record was cloned from the Alfalfa file, and some of the factors changed to represent dryland alfalfa Yield is from and OR state crop guide and the growth trials were from MT. Yield is set at 1.5 t/ac. Calibration of yield must be done manually by adding up the cuttings each year and averaging the years. If too high or too low use the biomass adjument factor to reduce or increase the forage produced. Grass is not considered in this file. MAS 8-7-08 The energy eff was adjusted to give good growth for a dryland yield in Weston Co, WY. This was certified crop run. MAS 12/18/08 Changed the cover to mass value to match Fosters finest stem curve, Small Grain and Alfalfa. Reference pg. 179 Ag Handbook 703. No crop has a larger number (finer stems) than .000586. This matches RUSLE2. MAS 12-21-10 The biomass adjustment factor has been set to 1.0 from the 0.6 that Fred had. The biomass conversion eff factor was moved from 30 to 24 to match yield of the standard alfalfa run in Moses Lake, WA and now in Yuma, AZ. The record runs a little under the 6 ton/ac yield in ML, and somewhat over the 10 t/ac for Yuma. The seed weight was increased from 0.00007 to 0.0006 to increase the intial growth of the fall planting.There is about 1500 lbs of growth going into winter in WA and about 2400 lbs/ac at the first harvest in AZ. Yuma will need to lower the Biomass Adjustment factor to 0.8 to get the 12 t/ac yield needed. MAS 7-6-11
