Nitrogen and Potassium Topdressing in Maize Intercropped with Brachiaria Ruziziensis
Maize has been intercropped with different forage species, especially <em>Brachiaria</em> spp., for different purposes and at different times: after maize harvest, as a food source for cattle; and exclusively for the production of straw to maintain a no-tillage system, which is the main purpose of intercropping in western Paraná.

The hybrid Brachiaria ruziziensis x Brachiaria brizantha (pasto Mulato) has been released as a highly productive tropical forage. This new option is being tested at Pucallpa in a field trial under a combination of NP fertilizer rates (0, 75 y 150 kg/ha/year of N and 0, 25 y 50 kg/ha/year of P).

Meiotic behavior in apomictic Brachiaria ruziziensis × B. brizantha (Poaceae) progenies [PDF]
Hybrids combining desirable traits from divergent parents are the main objective of some Brachiaria (Syn. Urochloa P. Beauv.) breeding programs. There is great interest in the development of apomictic hybrid cultivars that combine desirable genes such as resistance to spittlebugs, high nutritive value, and tolerance to acid soils.

Seed production studies in Ruzi grass (Brachiaria ruziziensis Germain and Everard) : a thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirement for the degree of Master of Agricultural Science in Seed Technology, at Massey University, Palmerston North, New Zealand [PDF]
The effect of photoperiod on seed production in Ruzi grass (Brachiaria ruziziensis) was investigated in order to gain a better understanding of reproductive behaviour. The experiment was conducted in a controlled temperature glasshouse which provided day

Abstract Intercropping cereals with non‐food intercrops (NFICs) provides a means to enhance cereal productivity while providing additional benefits such as improved soil health or forage production. We conducted a meta‐analysis to investigate the effect of NFICs on cereal yields, cereal nitrogen uptake, and striga (Striga spp.) infestation, using 874 ...

Genetic variability in Brachiaria ruziziensis for resistance to spittlebugs
The aim of this study was to evaluate the resistance of B. ruziziensis clones to the spittlebug species Deois schach and Mahanarva spectabilis. Together with the cultivar Marandu () and the progenies 77s, 85s and 106s as controls, 71 B. ruziziensis clones were evaluated in a randomized block design.

How to produce more biomass for direct seeding mulched based cropping system in sub-saharian Africa ? Example in North Cameroun [PDF]
In North Cameroon, from 2001 to 2006, more than 250 farmers tried direct seeding mulchbased cropping systems (DMC) in their fields. DMC systems were based on farmer traditional rotation i.e. cereal//cotton.

Objetivou-se avaliar os efeitos do boro em diferentes doses e épocas de aplicação na BRS RB331 Ipyporã. Foram conduzidos dois ensaios em vasos, a céu aberto, safra 2016/17. Em ambos os ensaios os tratamentos foram representados por quatro doses de boro e duas épocas de aplicação mais um tratamento controle (4x2+1), delineados em blocos casualizados, em
