The production of Smuts finger grass (Digitaria eriantha) was evaluated in various trials in the Highveld Region, at Potchefstroom. These trials were carried out over a long period on several soil types and with different fertilizer levels. All results were pooled and a multiple regression analysis was done to estimate the production potential under different rainfall, nitrogen and phosphate regimes.
