This experiment was conducted to evaluate the yield performance of forage rape (Brassica napus subsp. oleifera (Metzg.) Sinsk.) in comparison with the common soiling crops, sucH as oats, rye, hybrid ryegrass and turnips in the late fall period. The crops were seeded on August 25, 1982. Plant height, dry matter percentage and forage yield measurements were taken on October 27, 1982. Forage rape and oats were early in maturity and tall with upright stem. Turnips and rye were later to mature than forage rape and oats, but earlier than hybrid ryegrass in the late fall period. The newer forage rape tended to yield more forage than oats, turnips, rye and hybrid ryegrass. Forage rape, oats and Ponda turnips gave the highest dry matter yield, followed by rye and Polybra turnips. Hybrid ryegrass gave the lowest dry matter yield. Rye, hybrid ryegrass and oats showed a higher percentage of dry matter, but forage rape gave a medium percentage. Based on the results of the experiment it appears that cultivars of forage rape recently introduced from the Netherlands have excellent potential as soiling crops in Korea.
