Overview
Eragrostis Curvula is native to Africa. China Jiangsu, Hubei, Guangxi have cultivation. Eragrostis curvula are adapted to sandy slopes, farmland, roadside wastelands, and areas where vegetation has been damaged, and are particularly resistant to barren, humid, and drought conditions. It can grow well in semi-arid and even desert areas, but it grows best in well-drained and fertile acid sandy loam soil.
Eragrostis Curvula is a perennial grass of the genus teff. Culms densely tufted, erect, base slightly compressed, leaf sheath base covering each other, several times longer than internodes, and upper leaf sheath shorter than internodes. Lower Leaf sheaths scabrid and sparsely hirsute, sheath mouth villous. Eragrostis curvula are often cultivated for pasture or as garden plants. The Eragrostis Curvula is used primarily for soil and water conservation vegetation and lawn grass, or as soil and water conservation vegetation in areas where soil erosion is severe, or for the management of extensive general lawns.
