Title

Nutritive and mineral content of hay from three species-rich floodplain meadows, England, 2020-21

Abstract

Dataset includes concentration of crude protein, fibre (ADF and NDF), metabolisable energy (ME) and a range of dietary minerals from three species-rich floodplain meadows in Central England. Samples were taken between May and September in 2020 and 2021. Graminoid:forb ratio, Accumulated Growing Degree-days (thermal time), Accumulated Actual Evapotranspiration and yield are recorded for each date. The data were originally collected to investigate the seasonal dynamics of yield, dietary minerals, protein and energy in floodplain meadow hay. For full study method see https://doi.org/10.21954/ou.ro.00097871 Full details about this dataset can be found at https://doi.org/10.5285/361f0587-4cc6-48df-9f7e-8ade331cf8d5

Lineage

Data were generated from dried hay samples via Inductively Coupled Plasma Optical Emissions Spectrometry (ICP-OES) for dietary minerals and Near Infra-red Spectroscopy (NIRS) for crude protein, fibre and metabolisable energy. Data was cleaned, taking the mean of two replicates at each dilution. Work based on this data has been subject to examination and/or peer review.
