...ificantly (P< 0.05) than pre-boot and Seed ripe clipping stages. Analysis of data showed that Dry Matter (%) increased significantly as grasses grew from pre-boot stage till seed ripe stage. Keeping in view the highest forage yield and IVDMD, Panicum maximum was found to be the best species to meet the forage demand and nutritional requirements of livestock. Intermediate stage between Pre-boo...

...rent growth phases i.e., pre-boot, full-flowering, and seed-ripe. Fresh grass samples were collected and analyzed for several quality parameters. The samples were oven-dried in order to determine dry matter (DM) yield and subsequent analysis for Crude Protein (CP), Ash Content, Ether Extract (EE), Crude Fiber (CF), Acid Detergent Fiber (ADF) and Neutral Detergent Fiber (NDF). ANOVA test was applied on the data to determine the considerable differences of means...
