Tiger Grass Productivity in Bamboo-Based Agroforestry: The Role of Bamboo Stand Age

Year: 2026

Type: report

Abstract: Tiger grass (Thysanolaena maxima) is a valuable non-timber forest product (NTFP) widely used for broom-making and other commercial applications. Tiger grass thrives in agroforestry systems, particularly those involving bamboo. It serves as hedge grow, which controls erosion and good in rehabilitating degraded areas as it helps retain ground moisture and promotes soil fertility. It is also grown as viable livelihood venture because of its potential in generating cash income from the harvested panicles of the plant when proper management is employed.
