Nile Grass: Acroceras Macrum
from: Morne FoucheDescription:
Perennial grass, spreading by creeping slender rhizomes and stolons; culms up to 70 cm or more, sometimes prostrate at base; leaves expanded, to 20 cm long and 12 mm broad, glabrous or minutely hairy, rounded or almost cordate at base, tapering to sharp point, bright green; panicle up to 20 cm long, spikelike, of 2–5 racemes up to 8 cm long, the lower 5–9 cm apart; spikelets light green, acuminate or obtuse, 4–5 mm long, awnless, glabrous, with conspicuous indurate rounded appendages at laterally compressed apex of glumes and lemmas; lower glume more than half as long as spikelet, 3-nerved; upper glume 5-nerved; ligule a membrane fringed with short hairs, sometimes greatly reduced. 4x = 36.
Habitat:
Grows naturally in seasonally flooded valley bottoms in areas with 92–150 cm rainfall annually. It is indifferent to day length and will flower equally readily in long or short photoperiods. Flourishes on poorly drained or seasonally flooded land, and does not grow well under dry conditions. It has been successful on loams, sandy loams, and clay loams. Ranging from Warm Temperate Dry through Tropical Moist Forest Life Zones, Nile grass is reported to tolerate annual precipitation of 8 to 27 dm (mean of 4 cases = 13), annual temperature of 16° to 26°C (mean of 4 cases = 17), and pH of 4.3 to 7.3 (mean of 4 cases = 5.5). Rhind and Goodenough (1979) say it favors areas at elevation 600 to 2000 m, annual precipitation of 7.5–15 dm where the dry season is not too long.
Distribution:
Widely distributed in Africa from Ethiopia to South Africa, also in Angola and South West Africa; Introduced elsewhere e.g., Australia, Surinam, and Trinidad.
Uses:
A very palatable grass and rather extensively cultivated as pasture and hay, especially in the highyield areas of South Africa. Forms dense cover used for grazing and haymaking. Unsuitable for leys, as it is difficult to eradicate. Very useful as fodder source during dry season. The grass has been described, perhaps hyperbolically, as "the king of fodder grasses—a truly revolutionary grass" (Rhind and Goodenough, 1979).
