Dry matter yields and quality parameters of ten Napier grass (<i>Cenchrus purpureus</i>) genotypes at three locations in western Oromia, Ethiopia
Ten Napier grass genotypes (accessions) were assessed across 3 locations, Bako, Boneya Boshe and Gute, for forage dry matter (DM) yield, crude protein (CP) concentration, leaf:stem ratio, nutrient composition and digestibility characteristics during 2016 and 2017. The genotypes were evaluated in a r...
