摘要：
Lethbridge forage program deals with improvement of traditional crops (alfalfa, cicer milkvetch, sainfoin and orchardgrass) and non-traditional crops (fenugreek and PC rye). Genetic improvement in forage and seed yield, establishment and persistence of these crops in mixed stands and under grazing are being attempted. Agronomic packages to maximize productivity and to optimize forage quality and establishment are being developed. Other uses for these crops (health benefit of fenugreek) are also being explored.
