In order to improve the development of forage grass industry in the Huaihe River source area, 12 indexes of five aspects were selected to evaluate four kind of forages, which include the level of mechanization, economic benefit of the product, the nutritional value, the degree of environmental impact and the supply of resources by using the combined method of entropy weight and AHP. The results showed that the comprehensive evaluation indexes of Pennisetum sp., Artemisia carvifolia, Setaria viridis, silage maize and alfalfa were respectively 0.977, 0.904, 0.950,0.948 and 0.927, which indicated the cultivated forages had no advantage compared with the wild forage grass because of the lowly intensive animal husbandry production. The Pennisetum sp. of high evaluation index has not been popularized. The analysis of the evaluation results showed that the high quality forage in this area has high yield and abundant production resources, and has great potential for development.
