The researchers studied how different planting times, cutting schedules, and nitrogen levels affect the growth, yield, and economics of dual-purpose oats. They found that planting oats early in October resulted in higher yields and profits compared to planting them later in November. Cutting the oats at 50 days after sowing gave the best returns, while not cutting them at all led to higher grain and straw yields. Using 120 kg of nitrogen per hectare also increased yields and profits. Overall, planting oats in October, cutting them at 50 days, and using 120 kg of nitrogen per hectare gave the best results in terms of yield and profitability.
