The influence of growing conditions on the quantitative parameters of switchgrass (Panicum Virgatum L.) in the first vegetation year

Abstract

The article investigates the suitability of growing switchgrass on
degraded soils with the aim of obtaining the raw material for biofuel
production. Phenological observations during the growth and
development of the first year plants were performed. Quantitative
parameters (height and stand density) of different varieties and their
interrelationship for biomass production depending on row spacing
were evaluated.
