dc.description.abstract	Brachiaria cv Mulato I and Mulato II are high breed grass varieties developed in Latin America from the African Brachiaria grass species. Mulato I is recommended for high rainfall areas of medium to high altitude zones. Mulato II is recommended for low to medium altitude areas with 700-1200 mm of rainfall in a year. Mulato I and Mulato II are not infected by Napier stunt and head smut diseases. Mulato I has higher yields than Mulato II in western Kenya.
