Prototype cropping farming systems
Brachiaria grasses, especially R decumbens cv. Basilisk (signalgrass), are the most widely grown pastures in subhumid and humid tropics. When fertilized with nitrogen and well managed, these pastures have high forage quality (measured as digestibility). Animal production is therefore high and rel...

Nutritional quality and animal production of Brachiaria pastures
The factors of grazing management that influence tropical pasture utilization are discussed in this review. The principal objective is to consider stocking rate and grazing system effects-and their interaction-as related to the evaluation of germplasm under grazing. It is inferred that the study ...
Two experiments were conducted in the neotropical savannas of Carimagua, Colombia to test the hypothesis that Brahman females subjected to sustained grazing undernutrition as heifers can attain high reproductive performance as mature cows if allowed to make compensatory gains. In Experiment 1, we...

Resource flow models are useful tools that assist farmers in analysing their soil fertility management strategies and in planning, experimenting and adapting ways to improve the use of scarce local resources. Resource flows and farm nutrient balance studies were carried out in eastern Uganda to a...
