| dc.description.abstract | Guatemala grass (Tripsacum laxum), a high-yielding perennial fodder shows promise due to its good nutritional profile and adaptability. It remains leafy at maturity and has been successfully introduced in southern Ethiopia’s agroforestry systems. The effect of agro-ecologies and harvesting dates on agronomic traits, nutritional value and methane production of Guatemala grass was evaluated in this study. | en_US |
