“…On the other hand, the mean value of CP in Titán (5.88 %) is similar to the 6.1 % reported in the flowering stage by Beltrán-López et al (2017). M-42 represents an alternative to lower feed costs for CP supplementation since it outperformed Titán by 1.4 %.…”

“…The highest IVDDM was found in M-45 and M-S245 with values of over 74 %, surpassing (p < 0.05) Titán (Table 1). The weather conditions in this study were favorable for the materials since Titán presented a higher yield in comparison to other studies, in which DM production was 2370 kg ha -1 with 368 mm of rainfall (Beltrán-López et al, 2017). Additionally, the DM yields of all materials are within the ranges reported in the literature.…”

Buffel grass (Cenchrus ciliare L.) is a species used for the production of forage that is characterized by its adequate adaptation to diverse environments. The aim was to evaluate the characteristics of forage and seeds from four materials and a variety of Buffel grass under rainfed conditions in the semi-dry and semi-warm weather of Zacatecas. The experiment was held in Huanusco, Zacatecas, Mexico, in a totally randomized block design with three replications. The materials were: M-42, M-45, M-66, M-S245, and the Titán variety as a control. For forage, two cuts were performed, considering the variables of plant height (PH), production of dry matter (DM), crude protein (CP), and in vitro digestibility of dry matter (IVDDM). Seed characteristics were determined upon physiological maturity using the variables of seed yield (SY), number of spikes per plant (Sp/plt), caryopsides per spikelet (Car/sp), and area of caryopsides (Area/Car). The data were analyzed in SAS, and the means were compared using Lsmeans. For the variable PH, M-42 stood out with an average height of 97.3 cm. In the production of DM, M-42 and M-45 surpassed Titán (p < 0.05), with yields higher than 4.4 Mg ha-1. M-42 had the greatest CP content at 7.29 %, whereas M-45 and M-S245 had the highest IVDDM concentrations at 74.5 and 74.8 %, respectively. Regarding seed characteristics, M-42 surpassed Titán, with a SY of 295 kg ha-1. The study concluded that M-42 is the best option for grassland management in Zacatecas, Mexico, where the weather is semi-warm and semi-dry.

“…En el germoplasma de pasto buffel, de las 78 accesiones evaluadas, se identificaron dos genotipos sobresalientes y se registraron como "Titan" y "Regio". Los rendimientos registrados para estas variedades fueron 2.12 y 2.25 t MS ha -1 , con PC en floración de 6.1 y 5.8 %, mientras que en madurez 4.0 % y 3.3 %, respectivamente (53) . En el noreste de México, se encuentran disponibles variedades del pasto buffel, "Milenio" para los estados de Tamaulipas y Nuevo León (54) y "Zaragoza 115" y "Zaragoza 119" para el estado de Coahuila (55) .…”

El objetivo fue revisar el estado actual de los pastizales semiáridos y matorrales áridos del norte y centro de México, así como analizar los retos y perspectivas del uso de estos ecosistemas. Desde la década de los años 1950, el INIFAP en colaboración con otras instituciones han generado y transferido conocimientos sobre manejo de pastizales, lo cual se ha reflejado en el uso de prácticas de manejo en los ranchos ganaderos del país. Los pastizales y matorrales han sufrido disturbios, principalmente la apertura de tierras para cultivos y se encuentran deteriorados principalmente por el sobrepastoreo. La utilización de los pastizales y matorrales a través del pastoreo debería incluir una carga animal adecuada, sistemas de pastoreo y prácticas estratégicas de distribución del pastoreo. A pesar del deterioro, existe una gran diversidad de recursos genéticos, principalmente de pastos, que pueden ser utilizados para conservación y producción de semilla para rehabilitación de los pastizales. La resiembra, aunque de alto costo y riesgo, es una opción para rehabilitar aquellos pastizales o matorrales deteriorados. Estos ecosistemas pueden proporcionar servicios ambientales, principalmente captura de carbono para mitigar el cambio climático. Los retos son generar, transferir y aplicar conocimientos e innovaciones tecnológicas para lograr un manejo sostenible de los pastizales y matorrales, a pesar de algunas amenazas como la baja inversión en ciencia y tecnología, el cambio climático y la avaricia humana. Para lograr esto, es imprescindible la participación conjunta y comprometida de todos los actores e instituciones involucrados en el uso de estos ecosistemas.

“…Tall variety, with good productive behavior, good nutritional value, resistant to cold, drought (Osuna, 1986) and leaf blight (Díaz et al, 2006); However, its use has been limited by low seed production and availability (Hernández et al, 2004;Enzo et al, 2022), it presents poor flowering synchronization and rapid seed abscission, which affect yield and production costs (Hernández et al, 2004). The problem of low seed yields in buffel has been addressed through genetic improvement studies (Beltrán et al, 2008;Terrazas, 2013;Enzo et al, 2022;Gómez et al, 2022) and agronomic practices such as levels of fertilization, spacing between furrows and cutting height, (Kizima et al, 2014a), and very little has been investigated on the use of phytohormones in pastures, under which increases in seed yield of 20 to 236% are reported (Espinoza and Ortegón, 1993;Eguiarte and González, 2002;Joaquín et al, 2007). Therefore, the objective of the study was to evaluate the germination and yield of buffel grass seed (Cenchrus cilaris cv Zaragoza 115) in response to the effect of phytohormones at different doses under irrigation in the north of Coahuila.…”

The objective of the study was to evaluate the germination and yield of buffel grass seed (Cenchrus cilaris cv Zaragoza 115) in response to the effect of phytohormones at different doses under irrigation in the north of Coahuila. The experiment was carried out in the period from March to July 2022, in a meadow of buffel grass var. Zaragoza 115 established in 1997, at the Zaragoza Experimental Site. Zaragoza, Coahuila. Mexico. Four phytohormones were evaluated: T1: Auxins, T2: Gibberellins, T3: T1+T2 and T4: Auxins with macro and micro nutrients) and four doses per phytohormone, including the zero dose as a control (0, 15, 30 and 45 ppm A.I. ha-1), distributed in a randomized block design in a divided plot arrangement, with four repetitions. The following were evaluated: raw seed yield (RSC ha-1), number of panicles (NP ha-1), percentage of detached seed (SD), percentage of germinated seed (SG) and the cost/benefit ratio. The use of phytohormones increased NP and RSC (p>0.05), where the highest values (1,785,000 panicles ha-1 and 180.55 kg raw seed ha-1, respectively) occurred with the commercial auxin FolyverÒ at 15 ppm of A.I. ha-1. The increase in CSR of Folyver® -15 compared to that of Folyver®-0, was 30.55 % (55.17 kg ha-1). In SG, the highest value (24.36) was achieved with Radix®+Biogib® at 15 ppm I.A ha-1, higher and equal (P<0.05) to Radix® at 0 ppm, at 4.31%. In cost/benefit, Folyver® -15 auxin, with an increase of 55.17 kg of raw seed ha-1 and with respect to the control, reported a benefit of $19.18:1. It is concluded that the highest yield of panicles, raw seed and benefit was achieved when applying the commercial phytohormones Folyver® at 15 ppm I.A ha-1. in buffel pastures Z115 with years of establishment.
