| Outline of Research at the Start |
南九州では，自給粗飼料の確保がネックとなり，近年小規模経営体が減少し，飼養頭数の減少を招いている。暖地型牧草矮性ネピアグラスは，本地域では多年生で放牧利用に適するが，暖地型牧草は，降霜で地上部が枯死するため，従来放牧利用期間は降霜前に限定されていた。一方我々は，矮性ネピアグラスに放牧馴致した繁殖牛群では，秋季に休牧・貯草後霜枯れした草地に放牧しても，被食性や増体性に夏季生育期間と大差がないことを見出した。本研究では，夏季と冬季に繁殖牛群を矮性ネピアグラス草地に輪換放牧し，被食性や増体性，霜枯れ草の炭水化物含量等を検討することにより，本地域の省力的な繁殖牛周年放牧管理法として提案したい。

| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The present study examined a year-round grazing feasibility on dwarf napiergrass pasture in the summer growing season (summer) and the winter foggage period (winter) from the 2017-2018 to the 2021-2022 periods. Two genotypes of DL and 7734 dwarf napiergrass, which were established with vegetative nursey plants in 2016-2018, were allocated into 4 paddocks (500 m2/paddock) for each genotype and fertilized three times equally with 16.8 g/m2/year of N, P2O5 and K2O, each.
Three head Japanese-Black breeding cows were rotationally stocked with two cycles in 48-59 days for summer and with one-cycle in 28-42 days for winter. Daily gains were 0.79, 0.63, 0.66 and 1.11 kg/head/day for summer and were 0.71, -0.27, 0.62 and -0.08 kg/head/day for winter in four years.
The present study revealed that dwarf napiergrass persisted a permanent pasture with the precise fertilization and clearing of stubbles in spring to demonstrate the stable carrying capacity for at least 6 years in southern Kyushu.

| Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
本研究により，0.4ha（繁殖牛経営の耕地面積の約20％）を矮性ネピアグラス永年草地に造成すれば，黒毛和種繁殖牛3頭を夏季と冬季の年間3か月（88～98日）間飼料補給なしで輪換放牧利用でき，DGは2か年度の冬季を除き，0.6～1.1 kg/頭/日が得られ，十分な牧養力を発揮できることが示された．
草地管理としては，定期的な施肥の実施と早春の枯死株の掃除刈だけで，造成後少なくとも6年間永年草地を維持でき，その牧養力も低下する傾向が認められないことも実証された。
