| Abstract: | Herbaceous species plays an important role in the feeding of livestock. The knowledge on the production and quality help in the management of the rangeland. This study determined the productivity and pastoral values of the rangeland of Tahoua region in Niger Republic. Data on the livestock and the forage quality of the species were collected during the pastoral survey. Those on herbaceous were collected based on 10 sites of 3km*3km selected according to homogeneity of vegetation. The evaluation was carried out in 60 plots of 0.5m² in each sites. The herbaceous biomass within the quadrant of 1 m² yield squares were cut at 2 cm above ground. The species with good, average, low and no pastoral values represented 75.6, 14.17, 7.76 and 2.47% respectively in term specific contribution. The Good Pastoral Value was 87.6% and 84.8% for the Net Pastoral Value. The global quality index (GQI) was 84.8%. With ten species (Cenchrus biflorus, Tribulus terrestris, Dactyloctenium aegyptium, Alysicarpus ovalifolius, Eragrostis tremula, Aristida mutabilis, Ctenium elegans, Cencrhus preurii, Brachiaria lata and Gynandropsis gynandra) represented 95.8% of the total pastoral value of the rangeland. The average forage production was estimated at 1.190 t DM/ha qualified to support 0.23TLU/ha/year of load capacity. The forage produced covered by far the need of the animals with a percent coverage ranging from 175.59 to 412.66% according the departments. The results showed the absence of perennials plant species being replaced by replaced by shorter life cycle more resistant to irregular rainfall, such as Cenchrus biflorus. This study recommends having a pastoral management plan for the rangeland to ensure the appearance of perennial plant species and the sustainable management of plant resources. |
