Abstract:The aim of this study was to evaluate the forage mass and accumulation and nutritional value of cultivars Kennedy and BRS Integra (Urochloa ruziziensis), subjected to two planting densities (15 and 30 plants/m2) and three stubble height (15, 30 and 40 cm). The experimental design was a randomized block, in a 2x2x3 factorial, with three replications. The experimental period comprised two agrostological years. Plants managed under lower stubble height (15cm), showed lower leaf:stem ratio and higher canopy height… Show more
