Silage quality when Moringa oleifera is ensiled in mixtures with Elephant grass, sugar cane and molasses

, 2009
Fourteen different silages were prepared using mixtures of Moringa (Moringa oleifera), Elephant grass (Pennisetum purpureum cv Taiwan) or sugar cane (Saccharum officinarum). Molasses from sugar cane was used in the amounts of either 10 or 50 g kg-1 fresh

BIOMASS ENERGY PRODUCTION IN ELEPHANT-GRASS HYBRIDS [PDF]

Functional Plant Breeding Journal, 2020
Elephant grass is a forage plant widely spread in Brazil that was initially employed exclusively in the livestock sector as feed for cattle. This grass is characterized by its high productivity and high photosynthetic capacity.

Preemergence herbicides on weed control in elephant grass pasture [PDF]

, 2017
Elephant grass (Pennisetum purpureum Schum.) is an important forage crop that has been proposed as a potential feedstock for bioenergy production. However, weed interference is a major factor limiting elephant grass production.

Mineral profile, carbohydrates fractionation, nitrogen compounds and in vitro gas production of elephant grass silages associated with cactus pear

Bulletin of the National Research Centre, 2022
Background The high amount of soluble carbohydrates and the reduced dry matter content in cactus pear can cause excessive fermentation, resulting in nutrient losses, when it is preserved in the silage form.

Insights into Red Deer Ecology during the Late Epigravettian: New isotopic evidence from Riparo Tagliente (Italian Prealps)

Journal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
Abstract The transition from the Last Glacial Maximum to the Late Glacial marked a shift from the cold conditions of Greenland Stadial‐2 (GS‐2) to the warmer phases of Greenland Interstadial‐1 (GI‐1), enabling the reoccupation of Alpine regions by Late Palaeolithic hunter‐gatherers.

Rumen methanogenic archaea and their correlation with enteric methane emission in ruminant animals: A systematic review and meta‐analysis

JSFA reports, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Livestock, especially ruminants, are a major source of global methane emissions, primarily produced by methanogenic archaea during enteric fermentation. We performed a systematic review and meta‐analysis to account for factors that could influence the relationship between ruminal methanogenic populations and methane emissions, such ...

Nutritional evaluation of elephant grass hybrids

Makerere University Journal of Agricultural & Environmental Sciences, 2001
The nutritive value with regard to stage of maturity of elephant grass (Pennisetum purpureum) hybrids is largely unknown. Elephant grass (KW,) and its hybrids namely, ILCA16786, ILCA16837, ILCA16791.and ILCA16798 were evaluated to determine the effect of stage of maturity on dry matter yields (DM), chemical composition, intake and digestibility by ...
