A production function is derived and calibrated for Digitaria eriantha hay production in the Highveld region of the RSA. A procedure is described that optimizes this function for nitrogen and phosphorus application rates within economic and risk constraints at different expected rainfall levels.

Yield and quality of fertilized deferred forage of Digitaria eriantha and Eragrostis curvula
Journal of Arid Environments, 2001Abstract A cutting experiment was carried out in Bahia Blanca (Argentina) during 1998 and 1999 using a randomized block design in a 2 3 factorial experiment: (1) the species Digitaria eriantha and Eragrostis curvula , (2) 0 and 60 kg Nha −1 fertilizer treatment and (3) deferred harvesting on 1 June and 15 July.

Journal of the Grassland Society of Southern Africa, 1988 Digitaria eriantha plants were grown under controlled conditions for a period of three months, during which time they were supplied with the following forms and concentrations of nitrogen: 50 mg/l NO3 - -N, 200 mg/l NO3 -N, 200mg/l NH4 +-N and a combined

Summary. A glasshouse experiment was conducted to test hypotheses concerning differences in environmental adaptation of Digitaria eriantha (digitaria) and Medicago sativa cv. Hunter River (lucerne), and advantages of growing them in mixture on a solodic soil on the Far North-West Slopes of New South Wales.

An elite genotype of Digitaria milanjiana, which had been selected on the basis of improved leaf digestibility, was compared with pangola grass (Digitaria eriantha ssp. pentzii, formerly Digitaria decumbens) in terms of milk production, at Mutdapilly in south-eastem Queensland. Unsupplemented Holstein-Friesian cows grazed nitrogen-fertilised, irrigated

The effect of form and level of nitrogen fertlization on the yield of Digitaria eriantha Steud
Journal of the Grassland Society of Southern Africa, 1987On dryland Digitaria eriantha ammonium sulphate and limestone ammonium nitrate were superior to potassium nitrate and urea. With reference to the level of nitrogen fertilization it was found that levels in excess of 300 kg N/ha, and up to 400 kg N/ha, could be economically justified, even on a pasture with a high basal level of fertility.Language ...

Effect of nitrogen supply and management on seed production of Digitaria eriantha Steud. cv. Premier
2023Management practices for seed production of Digitaria eriantha cv. Premier were studied in four experiments at the University of Queensland Farm at Redland Bay, south east Queensland. The objectives were to investigate the effect of rate of nitrogen fertilisation, timing of harvest, timing of cleaning cut, timing of tiller emergence, and paclobutrazol

A review on foggage in the central grass veld with special reference to Digitaria eriantha.
African Journal of Range and Forage Science, 1988A literature review on the value of tropical grasses as foggage, during winter, is presented. The influence of climate on the choice of species and the management of the grasses, during the previous growing season, is described. More recent results on the use of Digitaria eriantha as foggage in the semi-arid regions of the Western Transvaal are given ...

Hay from Smuts finger grass and weeping love grass was produced, using three fertiliser levels, viz 30kg N + 2,8kg P ha–1; 90kg N + 8,3kg P ha–1 and 150kg N + 13,8 kg P ha –1. All the treatments were cut for hay at two different stages viz during the piping stage and during the early mature stage, when inflorescences opened.
