Strip-planting Rhizoma Peanut into Grazing Systems

Grazing Management Affects Establishment Performance of Rhizoma Peanut Strip Planted into Bahiagrass Pasture

Establishing rhizoma peanut (Arachis glabrata Benth.; rp) in strips into existing bahiagrass (Paspalum notatum Flüggé) pastures has potential to increase forage nutritive value, decrease N fertilizer use, and improve N cycling. Grazing the grass–legume mixture in the year after planting may be possible, but appropriate grazing management strategies have not been defined. The objectives were to ...

Comparison of Florigraze and Arbrook Rhizoma Peanut Under Continuous Grazing

Florigraze and Arbrook are the most widely used cultivars of perennial peanut in Florida, but their persistence and cattle weight gains have not been compared under continuous grazing. The objectives of this experiment were to evaluate the nutritive value and persistence of both cultivars, as well as to compare the performance (ADG) of 400-lb heifers continuously grazing the two cultivars. In t...

to be the biggest problem associated with stand establishment. Previous work has indicated that drought Planting rhizoma peanut (Arachis glabrata Benth.) directly into stress, particularly in the 3 mo postplanting is one of grass sod may be practical for producers [e.g., cow-calf (Bos taurus) the main reasons stands fail to establish or establish production, low maintenance roadside or turf sit...
