The objective of this experiment was to evaluate the forage potential of new selected clones of elephantgrass. The evaluation was conducted at the Dairy Cattle Research Centre – EMBRAPA, Coronel Pacheco, Minas Gerais, for two consecutive years. Twenty selected clones obtained by the elephantgrass breeding program were evaluated, and two traditional cultivars Cameroon and Taiwan A -146 were used as control. The experimental procedure was a randomized block design with four replicates. The fertilization for both establishment and maintenance was […]
