Abstract :The aim of study was to compare the yield components of 5 different fodder beets (Rota, Brigadier, Feldherr, Nedimbey, Rekord poly) under Bingöl ecological conditions. The experiment was established in the trial area of the Genç Vocational School Application and Research area in Genç district of Bingöl province in 2018 growing period. The research was conducted with randomized block design with four replications. In this study, leaf posture, green leaf yield, dry leaf yield, crude ash ratio, crude protein ratio, crude protein yield, acid detergent fiber (ADF), nötral detergent fiber (NDF), dry matter digestibility (DMD), dry matter intake (DMI), relative feed value (RFV) of fodder animal varieties were examined. According to the results of the research; the highest green leaf yield (1748.0 kg/da), dry leaf yield (197.7 kg/da), crude protein yield (27.19 kg/da) in Brigadier cultivar; the highest crude ash ratio (7.55%), DMD (74.14%) in Rota cultivar; the highest crude protein ratio, DMI and RFV (14.48%, 3.27% and 187.9, respectively) in Feldherr cultivar were recorded.Keywords : Fodder beet, yield, quality
