P., Author Publisher: Lalitpur : Nepal Animal Science Association Publication Date: 1995 Pagination: 46-48 p. Keywords: Animal  products;  Research;  Fisheries;  Pastures;  Livestock Abstract: Deenanath grass (Pennisetum pedicellatum) is a potential fodder crop grown in summer. Although, it isgrown mostly in tropical areas, a trial was conducted at an altitude of 1700m to examine the total DMyield and tillering effect on different R-R spacing.  The standard spacing for transplanted Deenanath grasswas considered as 30cm x 15cm (R-R x P-P) according to Chatterjee and Das (1989). The trial wasconsidered as Latin Square Design having 4 treatments and 4 replications. Though, highest plant height(average 58.3cm) and tiller number (16.95 per plant, significant at 0.05%) was observed in T-3(25%increased R-R spacing); maximum DM yield (average 3556kg/ha) and highest tiller number (average433.7per  m2) was found  in reduced R-R spacing by 50%.
