High-cut harvesting of maize stover and genotype choice can provide improved feed for ruminants and stubble for conservation agriculture
In smallholder crop–livestock systems where maize (Zea mays L.) is a staple cereal, the stover is usually an important but low‐quality ruminant feed. Maize stover has various competing uses, and optimal allocation of stover, particularly for forage and mulch, is essential for improving whole‐farm pr...
