Effect of Nitrogen Levels, Seeding Rates and Cutting on Yield and Protein Content of Sorghum Forage

Abstract

Sorghum being the popular forage crop of Bihar, can be valuable forage crop for the Chotanagpur region, to meet with the acute fodder scarcity period of November December and April-June, in the form of silage and sun-dried stalk (hay), since the prospect of rabi crop in this region is very dim. This can only be achieved by increasing the quality and yield of this forage in order to make it protein-rich and surplus in kharif by suitably adjusting the plant nutrition, plant population and cutting management.
