Effects of Fertiliser and Goat Manure on Nutrient Production of King Grass in Jamaica

In a continuing effort to establish its potential as a basic fodder grass for goat production in Jamaica the effects of different manure treatments on the nutrient production of9-week regrowths ofKing grass were studied over two years using a randomised bJlock design with six replications. The manure treatments were inorganic fertiliser (F), goat manure (GM) and inorganic fertiliser + goat manure (FGM), all providing the equivalent of 150 kg Nt halyr, and a control (no manure, N). There were significant (P
