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 ...

Climate‐Smart Invasive Species Management for 21st Century Global Change Challenges

Global Change Biology, Volume 30, Issue 10, October 2024.
To facilitate and support invasive species management in a changing climate, we review how climate change and invasive species interact to impact the planning, action, and outcomes of invasive species management. Practitioners can enact climate‐smart invasive species management by considering how climate change may impact which species are likely to ...

Stoichiometric ratios in the soil of native and forage areas in a seasonally dry tropical forest

Agro@mbiente On-line, 2020
The availability of potassium (K), calcium (Ca) and magnesium (Mg) in the soil affects the nutrition and productivity of the plant cover. The Ca:Mg, Ca:K and Mg:K stoichiometric ratios indicate the nutrient load balance in the soil.

Remote sensing for rangeland conservation monitoring: Impacts of livestock removal after 15 years

Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 61, Issue 9, Page 2111-2122, September 2024.
The ability to quantify management‐related impacts in land condition using freely available remote sensing data could support improved management by all stakeholders in these regions. The method leverages readily available satellite remote sensing data in a study design that is not dependent on large geospatial and climatic datasets that are not ...

Prescribed burning beneficial or neutral for native herbaceous vegetation in an invader dominated commercially grazed savanna

Austral Ecology, Volume 49, Issue 8, August 2024.
Abstract Prescribed burning is frequently used in savanna vegetation in Australia and worldwide. In north‐east Queensland savanna burning has been proposed for the control of woody weeds including Cryptostegia grandiflora (rubbervine), an invasive shrub/vine of riparian savanna.

Morphophysiology of buffel grass grown under different water supplies in the dry and dry-rainy seasons

Revista Brasileira de Engenharia Agrícola e Ambiental
The lack of information on the growth of forage grasses in semi-arid environment, especially from the perspective of irrigation, is one of the obstacles to regular forage supply, as well as to the rational use of irrigation water. The objective with this
