What is the annual fodder yield of Napier hybrid grass CO3 please?In: Agriculture |
[Edit] |
In Tamil Nadu normally get 120-130 tonnes of `Co3' fodder per acre across eight harvests every 45 days. "You can easily raise this to 150 tonnes (30 tonnes dry matter). If this is combined with the use of brush-cutters for harvesting and rain-guns (to increase irrigation efficiency, while reducing water consumption by 40-50 per cent)

In Kerala in fertile soils rich in organic matter, annual yields upto 300 to 350 tons have been obtained in Hybrid Napier variety CO-3. The crop requires high organic matter (up to 25 tons/ha) by way of Cattle manure or other organic sources. Irrigation with cattle shed washings immediately after cutting helps to realise very high yields. The fodder can be harvested once in 30-40 days with at least 7-8 cuttings per year.
