Abstract:The study was conducted to analysis the nutritional value of pennisetum using general nutrient analysis method and CNCPS system. The result showed that lig-nification in carbohydrate was pervasive, and LIG/NDF was 11.95 meaning lignin was more; CC(%CHO)was 33.56% which was higher than Chinese wildrye,alfalfa, straw and shrubs; digestible component -CB2- was lower than Chinese wildrye and alfalfa. And in protein nutrients, CP was 9.77%; NPN was the main component in SCP; PBl and PB3 of pennisetum was more than Chinese wildrye and alfalfa meanwhile PC was less than Chinese wildrye, alfalfa, straw and shrubs. In conclusion the protein nutrients were better and carbohydrate nutrients were indigestible in pennisetum harvested near to mature time.
