获得高质量的苜蓿干草对苜蓿和动物生产活动来讲是盈利的极为重要的一个方面。质量属性包括能量、自由采食量、粗蛋白、纤维、矿物。草料质量有许多属性，应通过实验室测量和主观观察（比如霉味和杂草含量）进行评估。植物细胞壁（中性洗涤纤维（NDF））以及酸性洗涤纤维（ADF）、粗蛋白（CP）的测量是常规分析中最有用的测量，其它具体用途还需要额外的分析。亲自对实验室分析进行解读，以及计算可消化养分总量（TDN）、代谢能（ME）、净能（NE）对理解实验室结果来讲很重要。苜蓿种植者投入时间来理解牛生产性能的质量因素将会因提高其以高价成功营销其苜蓿的能力而受益同传口译。

Attaining high-quality alfalfa hay is a critical aspect of profitability for alfalfa and animal
productivity. Attributes of quality include energy, voluntary intake, CP, fiber andminerals.
Forage quality has many attributes and should be evaluated through laboratory measurements and subjective observations such as odor mold and weed content. Measurements of plant cell wall (NDF), as well as ADF, CP and ash are the most useful measurements for routine analysis, with additional analyses required for specific purposes. Interpreting the laboratory analyses themselves, as well as calculated values such as TDN, ME and NE is important in understanding laboratory results. Alfalfa growers who invest the time to understand quality factors in cattle performance benefit by their improved ability to successfully market their alfalfa hay at high prices.

苜蓿种植者过去三十年来一直面临的一个主要挑战就是对草料质量不断提高的要求。生产高质量苜蓿干草的需要影响到了营销、价格以及产量和存储时间，因为市场对高质量苜蓿的需求从来就没有间断过。尽管作物产量仍然是决定草料作物单位面积价值的主要经济因素，但是草料质量一致紧随其后、位居第二广州意大利语翻译。

A major challenge faced by alfalfa growers over the past 30 years has been an increased
emphasis on forage quality. The need to produce high-quality alfalfa hay affects marketing and price, as well as yield and stand life, since demands for high-quality alfalfa by the marketplace have been relentless. Although crop yield is still the primary economic factor determining forage crop value per unit of land area, forage quality has become a close second.
