H.  aA new buffel grass for Queensland, farmers.h[electronic resource]  c1961  aAbstract: Type D strain of Cenchrus ciliaris is released under the name Biloela buffel grass. Material was introduced from Tanganyika, Africa in 1937, propagated at several stations, then established at the Biloela Regional Experiment Station in 1950. Biloela has produced more bulk with a higher proportion of leaf and has contained more protein than other buffel grasses, green panic, and Rhodes grass at comparable stages of growth. It has given excellent long season production and early spring growth. The slightly rhizomatous habit ensures hardiness under dry conditions. Biloela buffel grass is palatable to livestock. It does not cross with other strains.  aCultivars  aForage grasses  aCapim Buffel  aCenchrus ciliaris  aGramínea Forrageira  aReprodução  aCultivares  tQueensland Agricultural Journalgv. 82, n. 4, p. 187-188, 1961.
