Astrebla pectinata, commonly known as barley Mitchell grass, is a herb of the family Poaceae from the order Poales.[1]
Astrebla pectinata grows to 1 m (3.25 ft). The flowers are pollinated by wind and are hermaphrodites, having both male and female organs. It mostly prefers moist soil and also can grow in partial shade.[2] The species is considered to be the most balanced and economically important herbage in the semiarid areas of eastern Australia. It is a warm-season perennial grass. It is palatable to livestock even when it is dry.[1][3]
