Smart forage selection could significantly improve soil health in the tropics
International Center for Tropical Agriculture (CIAT)
https://hdl.handle.net/10568/101620
Abstract
The use of tropical grasslands to graze livestock is of high economic importance. Declining grassland soil health leads to reduced sustainability of livestock systems. There are high levels of phenotypic diversity amongst tropical forage grasses. We hypothesise that this variation could lead to significant differences in soil health and that…
