Effects of Seed Rate and Harvesting Stage on Nutrient Composition and the Dry Matter Yield of Setaria pumila Grass Under Rain‐Fed Conditions in Debre Markos, Ethiopia

Advances in Agriculture, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
The low productivity of livestock in Ethiopia seems to originate from the poor quality and quantity of feed. One of the options to solve the problem of food scarcity and increase livestock productivity could be to select and evaluate the naturally available grass species in natural pasture grasslands and introduce them into different forage production ...

EFEITOS DA FERTILIZAÇÃO COM NITROGÊNIO SOBRE A PRODUÇÃO E EFICIÊNCIA DO USO DA ÁGUA EM CAPIM BUFFEL

Revista Caatinga, 2008
The effects of five levels of nitrogen (N) fertilization (0; 60; 120; 240 and 480 kg of N/ha) upon Buffel grass (Cenchrus ciliaris, L.) performance were evaluated. A completely random design with three replicates was used.

Long‐term and landscape impacts of buffel grass on arid plant communities: Ecosystem shifts and acceleration by fire

Ecosphere
Plant invasions drive biodiversity loss, transform ecosystems, and promote positive‐feedback cycles between invasion and fire. However, the long‐term impacts of invasive grasses across landscapes with diverse plant communities and interactions with fire ...
