Conteúdo: | In the subtropic of southern Brazil (27S; 49W), Ituporanga, SC, EPAGRI, the Mott dwarf elephantgrass (MDE; Pennisetum purpureum Schum) was evaluated under four levels of forage on offer. The actual levels of green leaf lamina dry matter (GLLDM) were 3.8; 7.5; 10.5 and 14.7 kg/100 kg liveweight per day, arranged in a randomized block design, two field replications and three tester steers (8-10 mo.) per pasture, under continuous stocking and the put-and-take technique. Intensive sampling characterized pasture attributes and animal responses. Lenient grazing allowed better performance of pasture canopy, root system and residual dry matter. Higher rates of green leaf lamina accumulation sustained daily liveweight gain (DLG) above 1.0 kg/an, along the 210 days of the growing season. GLLDM available for grazing assures high DLG, promotes sustainability and defines the animal potential of MDE under continuous stocking.
