- Abstract
Lack of forage in semi-arid areas is one of the important issues in these areas. Cultivation of forages is effective terms to provide food of livestock in respect to rangeland condition and the high number of livestock. Obviously, it is necessary to identify cultivation circumstance and its approach based on plant physiological properties. We aimed to study the effects of time, depth, and sowing distance of Coronilla varia cultivation, seeds cultivated at three depth one, two and three cm and with distance of four, eight and twelve cm from each other at two level of times one and 15 march. The sextet growth characteristics investigated at 18 experiment unit during 15 weeks. The ANOVA based on Tukey's range test, results showed that cultivate treatments had significantly effect on the growth characteristics. The highest mean of stem height, length of leave, cross and height of branch and leave were recorded at sowing date of 15 March based on four cm distance and. Thereby, distance and sowing date has more effect related to depth. Distance of four cm and sowing date of 15 March provide better properties to growth for Coronilla varia.
