小米草是湖北省科委和湖北省水产局一九八三年从澳大利亚引进的一种优质牧草,是畜、禽、鱼类的优质饲料。一九八四年用22.5克种籽进行试种,当年一季收种籽六公斤,一九八五年继续进行试验,收种籽一千公斤,增长指数为100至300倍,最高可达500倍,是青饲料中增长指数最高的一种品种。具有以下优点: 一、营养物质含量高。其干物质的粗蛋白含量为22.5％,氨基酸含量为13.9％,其中赖氨酸和蛋氨酸含量分别高出苏丹草和红三叶30—2000％。收取种子后的枯草粗蛋白的含量达3.19％。 Xiaomi grass Hubei Province Science and Technology Commission and Hubei Provincial Bureau of Fisheries introduced from Australia in 1983 a high-quality forage grass, livestock, poultry, fish, high-quality feed. In 1984, the plant was planted with 22.5 grams of seeds. In the first quarter of the same year, seeds were harvested for six kilograms. In 1985, the experiment was continued. Seeds were collected for one thousand kilograms of seeds with an index of growth of 100 to 300 times and a maximum of 500 Times, is the highest growth index of green fodder species. Has the following advantages: First, high nutrient content. The crude protein content of dry matter was 22.5% and the content of amino acid was 13.9%. The content of lysine and methionine was 30-2000% higher than that of sudangrass and red clover respectively. After the seeds were collected, the content of the hay crude protein reached 3.19%.
