Forage mass and agronomic traits of Elephant grass genotypes under free-growth and conventional cutting systems

Few grass genotypes with high yield potential are used as fodder in Brazil, making it necessary to develop new cultivars. In this study, we compared tiller density, forage mass, and agronomic traits across 12 Elephant grass (Pennisetum purpureum Schum.) genotypes under free-growth and conventional c...
