Abstract
Many dairy farms in the South-West of this State have a small patch of kikuyu grass. It grows in the vicinity of the milking shed and is used to prevent erosion due to the heavy trampling of stock. Under these conditions, it forms a firm, close sod providing a green bite, but not very much bulk.
