This study was planned to analyse the basis that make Brachiaria species with greater feeding value than Napier grass (Pennisetum purpureum) for lactating dairy cows. Forty lactating crossbred cows were stall-fed on B. brizantha cv. Piatá or Napier grass cv. French Cameroon supplemented (mixed on...


Mutimura, MupenziEbong, CyprianRao, Idupulapati M.Nsahlai, Ignatius V.[Effects of supplementation of Brachiaria brizantha cultivar Piatá and Napier grass with Desmodium distortum on feed intake, digesta kinetics and milk production by crossbred dairy cows]Effects of supplementation of Brachiaria brizantha cultivar Piatá and Napier grass with Desmodium distortum on feed intake, digesta kinetics and milk production by crossbred dairy cows

In most of sub-Saharan African countries, including Rwanda, the predominant agricultural production is from a mixed-crop-livestock farming system, because of small size land holding. The objective of this study was to assess the seasonal availability of livestock feed resources in the semi-arid a...

A study was conducted to identify the most productive cultivars and their cutting management to optimize nutrient productivity in semi-arid areas of Rwanda. Four cultivars of Brachiaria brizantha (Piatá, MG4, Marandú and Xaraes), two cultivars of Brachiaria humidicola (Llanero and Humidicola), tw...

Brachiaria grass is one of the most important tropical forages native to Africa. It is adapted to drought and low fertility soils, and known for palatability and high-quality biomass production, and thus improves livestock productivity. Due to these desirable attributes, Brachiaria grass has beco...
