A combination of shrubland and grass species as animal feed is vital and can not be set-aside, since large areas are unsuited for crops but still can be used, justifiably to support "fodder produce" may be of poor quality. Obviously, there exists no strategy for determining what contributions are desirable from shrubland species when associated with grasses as source of quality biomass. Wasteland utilization be focused on productivity, its establishment and efficient maintenance under existing conditions. An experiment conducted for three years confirms that high biomass, dry matter and crude protein yields can be recovered by the combination of Moringa oleifera under varying tree environments thereby confirming that the land x shrub species culturing are inseparable from each other.

Abstract


A combination of shrubland and grass species as animal feed is vital and can not be set-aside, since large areas are unsuited for crops but still can be used, justifiably to support "fodder produce" may be of poor quality. Obviously, there exists no strategy for determining what contributions are desirable from shrubland species when associated with grasses as source of quality biomass. Wasteland utilization be focused on productivity, its establishment and efficient maintenance under existing conditions. An experiment conducted for three years confirms that high biomass, dry matter and crude protein yields can be recovered by the combination of Moringa oleifera under varying tree environments thereby confirming that the land x shrub species culturing are inseparable from each other.
