Abstract

Discusses a practical non-destructive sampling procedure of experimental Napier grass populations (Pennisetum purpureum) which is determined by the number of stools per row of planted Napier grass, the number of tillers per stool and the number, height and thickness of each tiller, the latter being best approximated by its basal area.
