F. G.  aThe utilization of Eragrostis curvula and Pennisetum clandestinum pastures for growing out and finishing young beef steers.h[electronic resource]  c1977  aAbstract: Results obtained from three observation trials to assess the feasibility of utilizing Eragrostis and kikuyu with young beef steers are presented. Although both grasses were characterized by a high grazing capacity the performance of livestock, on an individual basis, was disappointing in the light of the high rate of fertilization and supposedly high feeding value of the grass. This was especially so with Eragrostis. The need for a comprehensive investigation of the nutritional value of these grasses in the grazing situation as a basis for supplementation is emphasized.  aBullocks  aCattle feeding  aForage grasses  aGrasses  aNutritive value  aPastures  aSouth Africa  aCapim Quicuio  aEragrostis Curvula  aGramínea Forrageira  aPastagem Cultivada  aPennisetum Clandestinum  aBeef steers  aFertilizacao  aFertilization  aGrazing capacity  aUtilizacao1 aEDEN, D.
