Description

Avena strigosa is a tufted grass growing to a height of 0.8–1.5 m. Its seeds are smaller than those of the common oat, Avena sativa.[1]

Uses

[edit]

Avena strigosa used to be cultivated as human food in Scotland, but it is now cultivated as a forage for ruminants in South America. It is a nutritive grass with a good protein content.[1]
