  • Combining rainwater harvesting and grass reseeding to revegetate denuded African semi arid landscapes 
    Mganga, Kevin Z.; Bosma, Luwieke; Amollo, Kevin O.; Kioko, Theophilus; Kadenyi, Nancy; Ndathi, Aphaxard J. N.; Wambua, Stephen; Kaindi, Eric M.; Musyoki, Gilbert K.; Musimba, Nashon K. R.; Steenbergen, Frank van (2021-12-03)
    In African drylands, perennial grasses preferred by grazing livestock are disappearing at an alarming rate. This has led to recurrent livestock feed shortages threatening pastoralist’s livelihoods. Combining native grass ...
  • Forage value of vegetative leaf and stem biomass fractions of selected grasses indigenous to African rangelands 
    Mganga, Kevin Z.; Ndathi, Aphaxard J. N.; Wambua, Stephen; Bosma, Luwieke; Kaindi, Eric M.; Kioko, Theophilus; Kadenyi, Nancy; Musyoki, Gilbert K.; teenbergen, Frank van S; Musimba, Nashon K. R. (CSIRO Publishing, 2021-05-25)
    Context: Rangeland grasses native to Africa constitute the main diet for free-ranging livestock and wild herbivores. Leaf:stem ratio is a key characteristic used for assessing quality of forages. However, studies to determine ...
  • Plant morphoecological traits, grass-weed interactions and water use efficiencies of grasses used for restoration of African rangelands 
    Mganga, Kevin Z.; Kaindi, Eric M.; Ndathi, Aphaxard J. N.; Bosma, Luwieke; Kioko, Theophilus; Kadenyi, Nancy; Musyoki, Gilbert K.; Wambua, Stephen; van Steenbergen, Frank; Musimba, Nashon K. R. (Frontiers Media, 2021-01-07)
    Degradation characterized by depleted vegetation cover is a serious environmental problem in African rangelands. It poses a serious threat to millions of pastoralists and agropastoralists who depend on livestock as a source ...
  • Primary production variables of brachiaria grass cultivars in Kenya drylands 
    Musimba, Nashon K. R.; Nguku, Susan A.; Njarui, Donald N.; Amwata, Dorothy A.; Kaindi, Eric M. (Universidad Autonoma de Yucatan, 2016)
    The study was conducted to evaluate the primary production variables of Brachiaria grass cultivars in semi arid regions of Eastern Kenya. Brachiaria cultivars B. decumbens cv. Basilisk, Brachiaria hybrid Mulato II, four ...
