A total of 30 samples of
elephant grass silage were collected from 27 different silos with 3 kinds of additives, during 3 periods.
(2003) in the interior of Paraiba after ingestion of creeping rivergrass (Echinochloa polystachya) and
elephant grass (Pennisetum purpureum).
When it was breakable, the banana peel was disintegrated in a stationary forage machine, in order to favor the homogenization of the material in
elephant grass ensilage.
Five hundred gram of Ultisol soil was put into 1 kg plastic pot, and then mixed with humic compounds and compost in accordance with the treatment, such as: 50 mL humic compounds of the Centrosema pubescens compost (HKC), 50 mL humic compounds of the
elephant grass compost (HKR), 50 mL humic compounds of the chicken manure (HKA), 5 g compost of Centrosema pubescens (parallel with 20 t/ha) (KC), 5 g compost of
elephant grass (parallel with 20 t/ha) (KR), 5 g compost of chicken manure (parallel with 20 t/ha) (KA), and control (distilled water) (K0), and then they were incubated for 63 days.
Therefore, nonirrigated (
elephant grass, apple guava, and passion fruit) and irrigated (passion fruit, carrot, maize, tomato, and green pepper) stands will show contrasting soil water content and microclimatic conditions that may influence arthropod density.
Elephant grass varieties are commonly used in a cut-and carry system which makes for a feedstock that can be fed in stalls.
(2010c) did not obtain significant phosphorus removal, where the effluent concentration was greater than that of the influent applied to CWS cultured with Tifton and
elephant grass for the treatment of dairy wastewater.
Elephant grass (Pennisetum purpureum) had higher (78%) moisture contents than any other grass of this study.
The typical damage caused by this species has often been observed in signal grass and
elephant grass pastures, but farmers and agronomists still often do not associate this damage with the causative agent, leading to the use of incorrect tactics to combat the problem.
Their work - called Where The Wild Things Were - is formed by a series of eight metre-high etched stainless steel and composite blades which sway in the wind and evoke the
Elephant Grass found in Africa and Asia, an example of the exotic from far-off lands which Salford Quays helped to bring to Manchester.
Bio-coal briquette using
elephant grass is very effective.
Topics of the many short communications abstracted here include the ruminal metabolism of soluble rapeseed meal protein in vitro, the adaptation of hepatic glucose uptake and metabolism in growing lambs fed diets unbalanced in energy and nitrogen, and a simulated model of dairy heifer growth and time to mating weight when fed nothing but
elephant grass. Only the authors are indexed.
