DOI : 10.21566/tarbitderg.280279 - This experiment was carried out in order to determine growing opportunities of different forage legumes in paddy field as winter catch crops in Gelemen experimental field of Black Sea Agricultural Institute between 2008-2012. Karadeniz (Oryza sativa L.) as rice cultivar and Efes-79 (Vicia villosa L.), Albayrak (Vicia sativa L.), Tarm beyazı-98 (Vicia pannonica Crantz.), P:98 (Pisum sativum subsp. arvense (L.) Asch) as winter forage legume catch crops were used in this study. Forage legumes were planted with Fahrettinbey barley cultivar. As a consequence of this study; in controlled irrigated areas in paddy fields, Hungarian vetch (Vicia pannonica Crantz.) and other vetches were seen growing easily, primarily.
