Description:	Evaluation of forage production and persistence of Panicum maximum in the Campanha region of the Rio Grande do Sul The cultivation of Panicum maximum in temperate regions is oriented to feed livestock during the hot season of the year. Increasing milk production in several regions of southern Brazil has demanded information on tropical forage showing good performance under conditions of temperate climate. Also in areas of natural grasslands, with warmer and drier environments, the species has a high potential for use. For these reasons, Embrapa has sought to develop new cultivars adapted to these environmental conditions. This study aimed to evaluate forage production and persistence of new lineages of panicum, and some cultivars are released, in the Campanha region of Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil. The experiment was established in Bage, RS, in February 2008 and was evaluated by April 2010. The variables analyzed were total dry matter and leaves, and persistence. The experimental design was a randomized block design with three replications. Time x treatment interaction occurred for total dry matter production and leaves, and a large variation in relation to persistence, with some treatments did not survive either the first winter. In general, the lineages PM 41 and PM 43 stood out for most treatments, including various cultivars for forage production and persistence, indicating great potential for new releases sent to temperate regions.
