A study on the seed production technology of Kikuyu Grass

摘要：

In China, kikuyu grass (Pennisetum clandestinum) was successfully introduced in the middle 80s last century by Yunnan Beef Cattle and Pasture Research Center during a Sino‐Australia technology co‐operation program.Kikuyu has performed very well for more than twenty years in the past.Thus, requirement for the seeds keeps going up year after year.The seeds of the species is usually enclosed in its leaf sheath, adding to the difficulty of seed harvesting and threshing, which makes the seed production of the species even more difficult, restricting greatly the large scale extension and application.
