Bothriochloa insculpta

Bothriochloa Insculpta, commonly known as Stippelgras, is a robust perennial grass adapted to tropical and subtropical regions. Known for its dense growth and bluish-green foliage, this grass is valuable for grazing, soil conservation, and erosion control in warm climates. Stippelgras is drought-resistant and well-suited for pastures, especially in areas with seasonal rainfall. Its resilience and palatability make it a popular choice in grazing systems, providing a reliable forage source in challenging conditions.

Key Features:

• Drought-Tolerant: Thrives in low-water conditions, making it suitable for arid and semi-arid areas.
• High Forage Value: Palatable and nutritious for livestock, especially when young, making it a valuable addition to grazing systems.
• Soil Stabilisation: Dense roots help anchor soil, reducing erosion on slopes and disturbed lands.
• Adaptability: Grows well in a variety of soil types, including sandy and loamy soils, and is tolerant of low fertility.
• Seasonal Appeal: Known for its attractive bluish-green foliage, adding an aesthetic value to natural landscapes and pastures.

Stippelgras is ideal for land managers looking to improve grazing systems, enhance soil health, and support sustainable land use in warm and dry regions. Its adaptability and resilience make it a dependable grass for both ecological and agricultural applications.
