VARGAS JUNIOR, F.M. de et al. Productivity and nutritive value of tropical grasses subjected to grazing with sheep. Arch. zootec. [online]. 2013, vol.62, n.238, pp.295-298. ISSN 1885-4494.  https://dx.doi.org/10.4321/S0004-05922013000200016.

The objective was to evaluate three forage Panicum maximum 'Aruana', Panicum maximum Jacq. 'Massai' and Brachiaria hybrid 'Mulato'. The quality of the Massai proved to be lower, with low crude protein, high NDF, ADF high and low digestibility. Mulato has already had results similar Aruana and different statistically Massai to all the parameters of quality assessed. It was concluded that the cultivar Massai presents nutritional value lower than the cultivars Aruana and Mulato, while the latter maintained good nutritional levels, even during the dry season.

Palavras-chave : Aruana; Continuous grazing; Massai; Mulato.
