forage yield stability of common vetch (Vicia sativa L.) genotypes in the Cukurova and GAP regions of Turkey

Improving forage production for an expanding livestock population is essential in the Çukurova and GAP (South-eastern Anatolia Project) regions of Turkey. Feed shortages, especially evident during winter, can be alleviated by introducing high yielding common vetch (Vicia sativa L.) cultivars into crop rotations.
