The ability of four introductions of the genus Brachiaria to adapt to the influence of plant pathogenic fungi under two soil moisture regimes was evaluated. Pathogens limiting the development of the crop were determined and the frequency of occurrence indicated that Pythium, Rhizoctonia and Fusar...

Cutting sedge (Scleria pterota Presl.) is a common weed in pastures. It grows vigorously and forms patches in poorly drained soils and appears uniformly dispursed in pastures on rolling land. It is unpalatable to cattle and is extremely competitive with pasture species. It was found that both diu...

Pastures of Brachiaria brizantha (Bb) alone or with Arachis pintoi (Bb + Ap) were rotationally grazed by 3 (LSR) and 6 (HSR) hd/ha. Mean 4-weekly forage DM on offer ranged from 3.5 t/ha at the HSR for Bb to 6 t/ha at the LSR for both pasture types. Mean dry weight proportion of Ap was 6% at the L...
