Abstract
On soil containing moderate amounts of N and P and large amounts of exchangeable K, N significantly increased the green yield, crude fibre, cellulose, digestible cellulose and P at rates of up to 60 kg N/ha. Significant increases up to 90 kg N were recorded for dry matter and crude protein. At rates of up to 2.0 kg/ha, ZnSO4 gave significant responses in green and dry matter, crude fibre and ether extract yields. P uptake showed a negative response to ZnSO4. N did not significantly influence the per cent composition of any of the chemical constituents, but ZnSO4 significantly decreased the per cent composition of digestible cellulose, Ca and P
