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.

Abstract

While considering the vital role of forest as grazing resource, the importance of fodder cum fuel trees need to be assessed to establish and procure more fuel during greater part of the year. Be sides other parameters, the search on fodder tree evaluation as fodder resource is necessary with other crops. The vital role of wasteland areas and to convert them into productive ecosystems by making use of different shrubs was considered pre-eminent. In this direction, a continuous program for three years was conducted on fundamental cum applied role of shrubland plants in raising biomass productivity.
