Abstract

An experiment was conducted at the Colégio Politécnico da Universidade Federal de Santa Maria (UFSM) – RS, in order to evaluate the production of hydroponic fodder of three varieties of triticale (X Triticosecale Wittmack): BRS Saturno, BRS Ulisses and Embrapa 53 at the densities 2.0 kg m-2, associated with four densities of hairy vetch SS Ametista (Vicia villosa Roth.) at doses of 0, 150, 300 and 450 g m-2, during the winter of 2011. The experiment was conducted in a high tunnel with each treatment in an area of 1.0 m-2, using a nutrient solution described by Santos et al. (2004). Evaluations were performed at 20 days after sowing. BRS Saturno had the highest average yield with 15.50 kg m-2 followed by Embrapa 53 with 12.97 kg m-2 and BRS Ulisses with 12.12 kg m-2. Vetch dosis increased the total dry matter linearly.
