Nitrogen Fertilization and Harvest Timing Affect Switchgrass Quality

open access: yesResources, 2020
Early season switchgrass (Panicum virgatum L.) can be used as animal feed and mature late-season biomass as a biofuel feedstock. However, nitrogen (N) application and harvest timing effects on the quality of both end-use need further evaluation.
