Mixed production of Alexandergrass and sorghum under nitrogen fertilization and grazing intensities

Abstract: Annual pasture specie are used in southern Brazil to supply forage in the fall and spring when major forage species have their productivity diminished. Forage sorghum (Sorghum bicolor, (L.) Moench) is a suitable option that has been adopted by farmers due to its high quality as forage. It has been observed that in areas where forage sorghum is cultivated, alexandergrass (Urochloa plantaginea) usually appear as a spontaneous specie. The aim of this study was to observe the effect of two grazing intensities (30 … Show more

“…O sorgo é uma cultura que possui mecanismo de grande adaptabilidade a climas tropicais, representando uma alternativa importante para regiões áridas e com baixos níveis de pluviosidade (Perazzo et al, 2017), onde tem se destacado no uso do tipo forrageiro na alimentação animal (Soares et al, 2020). De acordo com Tabosa et al (2013), estas características adaptativas possibilitam seu cultivo numa vasta variedade de solo e de clima, o que o qualifica como uma cultura de grande capacidade de crescer em condições ambientais adversas (Guo et al, 2015).…”

“…In the southern region, in the summer period, some areas used for livestock farming have a good coverage with Alexandergrass (Urochloa plantaginea (Link) Hitch). The species presents itself spontaneously and, due to its tillering potential, forage accumulation (RESTLE et al, 2002;SARTOR et al, 2011;COSTA et al, 2011) and good adaptation to the soil and climate conditions of the southern region (BERGOLI et al, 2019) has been used as forage in pastoral systems (SOARES et al, 2020). Alexandergrass allows the adequate conversion into animal product, enabling the mating of beef heifers from 15 months of age (COSTA et al, 2011;ELOY et al, 2014, SALVADOR et al, 2014, average daily gain above 0.6 kg animal -1 day -1 in beef heifers (COSTA et al, 2011;SALVADOR et al, 2014;NEGRINI et al, 2018) and stocking rate of 1.600 to 2.400 kg ha -1 of body weight (RESTLE et al, 2002;NEGRINI et al, 2018).…”

“…The richest habitat for biodiversity on earth is the soil, which is rich in organic and inorganic material that provides habitat for various biological communities 16 , 17 . Soil microorganisms are involved in ecological processes such as nutrient decomposition and supply, and they are an essential component of growth and yield formation 18 .…”
