Napier grass is tall leafy grass that is very similar to bamboo in terms of looks and it also makes for good fodder for the cattle. This is something that grows abundantly in subtropical climates and is native to the African continent. However, the natural Napier grass has a very coarse texture, with leaf blades that are very hairy. The leaves are serrated, dry with fibrous stems. Thus, in its natural form, this is not suitable for the cattle.<\/p>\n

However, scientists have created a hybrid Napier grass with the natural Napier plant and Bajra plant. This hybrid plant is known as Napier CO5 and is useful as a cattle feed. Good cattle feed is essential to meet the high demand for milk production.<\/p>\n

Common Issues for Dairy Farmers<\/b><\/strong><\/p>\n

Dairy farmers face many issues that result in a decrease in overall milk production. One of the reasons for this is that cattle rearing is declining since dairy farmers are unable to afford the high cost of production of cattle feed, shortage of labor and small land area. Good cattle feed in large amounts is very important to maintain a healthy number of cattle and in turn, have a large production of milk.<\/p>\n
