This study looked at how growing maize and alfalfa together can improve forage production. Different planting patterns were tested to see which one worked best. The results showed that intercropping maize and alfalfa increased the amount of nutrients in the forage compared to growing them separately. The more alfalfa in the mix, the better the protein content. Intercropping also improved the digestibility of fats and carbohydrates in the forage. Overall, growing maize and alfalfa together can produce more nutritious forage for animals to eat, making it a good option for farmers looking to increase their forage production.
