TLDR
The methane yield per hectare of the 1st harvest of all grasses was always higher than that of the 2nd harvest per hectar because of the higher dry matter yield and specific methane yield.About:

Biogas production from maize and dairy cattle manure - influence of biomass composition on the methane yield.
TL;DR: In this paper, anaerobic digestion of maize and dairy cattle manures was investigated for 60 days in 1-l eudiometer batch digesters at 38°C, and the authors derived a multiple linear regression equation, the Methane Energy Value Model, that estimates methane production from the composition of maize.

Biochemical methane potential of biomass and waste feedstocks
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors evaluated the biochemical methane potential (BMP) assay in terms of inoculum (rumen versus primary sludge digester), inoculum-to-feed ratio, and particle size for analysis of extent and rate of conversion of biomass and waste feedstocks to methane.
