Opis

This book provides a detailed description of the study of environmental profiles, chemical composition, morphological characteristics, and salinity tolerance of the study plants. Leptochloa fusca and Echinochloa stagnina. The above ground biomass for Leptochloa fusca was 2.5 kg/m2 fresh weight, which is 25 tons per hectare. Echinochloa stagnina fresh weight increased during the summer to reach 2.60 kg / m2 and the equivalent of 26 tons per hectare and this is good for the international specifications in terms of yield of productivity of two plants. Results obtained will be useful in the agricultural application of the target species as non-traditional feed, in particular in summer, where there is a lack of feed.
