Switchgrasses: Forage Yield, Forage Quality and Water-Use Efficiency [PDF]
The purpose of the study was to evaluate 3 strains of switchgrass (Panicum virguturn L.) under 3 water and 3 harvest regimes. Dry matter yields, under natural rainfall and full irrigation, averaged 2.0 and 6.7 metric tons/ha, respectively. Productivity of the 3 strains ranked G 3OO>HV-341>Biackweii. Yields of HV-341 and Blackwell were similar under 1,2,
