The effects of fall, spring, and spring plus fall defoliation were studied in four winter rye (Secale cereale L.) cultivars for 2 yr. On average, the three treatments reduced grain yield by 8.7%, 16.6% and 23.2%, respectively, compared to the untreated check. The four cultivars responded similarly.Key words: Secale cereale L., rye (fall), simulated grazing, defoliation, cereals (winter)
