Mombasa Grass and Mulato 2 Comparison
MOMBASA GRASS - is an African grass from Tanzania and named after the city of Mombasa in Kenya. It is a very fast-growing grass, and about 2-4x fast-growing compared to Mulato II, Napier and other grass. No other weed or grass have outgrown Mombasa grass on our farm, thus making it a good weed suppressant.
✔️Good for cut and carry
✔️Fast-growing (2.5mos after transplant) and 20-30days harvest interval thereafter.
✔️Palatability
✔️Weed Suppressant
✔️Drought-tolerant
✔️Agroforestry initial ground cover while establishing canopy
✔️Good for silage
??? Shade-resistant (slower growth rate on shaded areas)
Leaves - 0.8-2m tall , 2-4cm width
Crude Protein: 8-14%.
MULATO II GRASS - is a three-way Brachiaria hybrid (Brachiaria ruziziensis × Brachiaria decumbens × Brachiaria brizantha). Mulato II is the result of three generations of crosses and screening carried out by CIAT’s tropical forages project in 2004.
It took us 6months of research on pasture improvement before we found out about this grass. We wanted a crop suitable for rapid rotational grazing similar to Johnson grass of continental US.
✔️Good for rotational grazing
???Fast-growing (5-6mos grazing ready) and grazed every 30 days.
✔️Palatability
✔️Weed Suppressant at 6mos. after establishment
✔️Drought-tolerant
??? Shade-resistant (slower growth rate on shaded areas)
Leaves - 1m tall , 1-2cm width
Crude Protein: 12-18%.
Both plants have good drought-tolerance and can survive with only 8-35hrs rainfall annually.
