The objective of this study was to predict the in vitro gas production and the estimated metabolisable energy (ME), crude protein (CP) and neutral detergent fibre (NDF) concentrations of kikuyu grass (Pennisetum clandestinum) by near infrared reflectance spectroscopy (NIRS). A total of 288 sample...

The objective of this work was to determine the applicability of the dry-weight-rank (DWR) method for evaluating the botanical composition of forest understorey vegetation. An analysis of plant species abundance was carried out, and instead of ranking the three most abundant species, as is common...

A study was carried out to test: (1) if the prediction of in vitro gas production of kikuyu grass (Pennisetum clandestinum) samples by near-infrared reflectance spectroscopy (NIRS) could be improved by the use of a spectrally-structured sample population; and (2) if the parameters from exponentia...
