Abstract
Effect of harvesting frequency on overwintering of two forage grasses, hybrid elephant grass (Pennisetum purpureum × P. glaucum) and hybrid pearl millet (P. glaucum × P purpureum), were studied. The results showed that the root biomass, nutrient storage in roots, regrowth rate, and fresh yield of the overwintering grasses were decreased with the increase of harvesting frequency. The effect of harvesting frequency on regrowth rate of hybrid pearl millet was greater than that of hybrid elephant grass. Root biomass and fresh yield of overwintering hybrid elephant grass were more significantly decreased than those of hybrid pearl millet.
