“…Internode diameter that IN dimensions can vary due to the effect of humidity, temperature, photoperiod, planting season, and planting density (Tsuchihashi and Goto, 2005). The latter can increase plant height as a result of competition for light, water, and nutrients, mainly inducing an increase in the number of INs or their dimensions (Ayub et al, 2002;Tang et al, 2018). This indicates that the production conditions influence the stem characteristics of each variety.…”

Sweet sorghum (Sorghum bicolor [L.] Moench) is a crop that is well known for its high production of biomass and sugars in the stem juice. The objective of this work was to evaluate the productivity of sweet sorghum 'Roger' based on the dynamics of sugar production and dry biomass by considering different production methods and plant phenological stages. The experimental design consisted of different tillage and fertilization methods established in a randomized complete block design with a split plot arrangement. Tillage treatments were assigned to the plot using the three levels of minimum tillage, traditional tillage, and traditional tillage that included a subsoil operation. Fertilization treatments were assigned to the subplot using the three levels of organic fertilizer, inorganic fertilizer, and without fertilizer. Data collection was performed at different plant phenological stages from anthesis to physiological maturity. Results showed that evaluated agronomic parameters depended on the phenological stage (P < 0.05) rather than the production methods (P > 0.05). Thus, the distribution and accumulation of sugar by stem internodes was associated with plant phenological components. The highest values of the concentration of total soluble solids (14.89%), juice sugar content (22.91 g), juice sugar concentration (527.46 mg g-1 DW), dry biomass (60.04%), and dry biomass yield (19.01 t ha-1) were observed at the physiological maturity stage of the plant.

“…The shape and number of leaves in DM production are also important because they determine the efficiency of capturing solar radiation and provide uniform plant development. Thus, the size of the leaf area between floral differentiation and anthesis can influence biomass production (Vermerris and Saballos, 2013;Tang et al, 2018).…”

“…The use of sorghum culture with other forage species in a intercropped and dense system is an alternative that helps food production and increases producer income and cultivation resilience, as it has high efficiency in the use of radiation, water and nutrients (Borghi et al, 2013;Samarappuli & Berti, 2018;Tang et al, 2018).…”

“…When it comes to the use of sorghum in densed and intercropped systems, food production becomes more pronounced, due to the efficiency in the use of biophysical resources (water, soil, solar radiation) (Borghi et al, 2013;Samarappuli & Berti , 2018). Throughout the crop cycle, with the entry of light into the system, plants optimize their growth by increasing the number of tillers, leaf area index and biomass yield above the ground, making it sustainable and productive (Diniz et al, 2017;Lima et al, 2018;Tang et al, 2018).…”

Em regiões áridas e semiáridas as condições climáticas e salinização do solo e da água proporcionam declínios na produção de forragem e comprometem o rendimento dos rebanhos. Logo, o uso de espécies forrageiras adaptadas e de alto valor nutricional, torna-se uma alternativa para manter a disponibilidade de alimentos em períodos sazonais. Dentre estas espécies, a palma forrageira é um alimento recomendado para os ruminantes, devido ao alto teor de água em suas estruturas, boa aceitabilidade e baixo custo de produção. A cultura do sorgo, também apresenta elevado potencial forrageiro, alta produção de matéria seca, baixa exigência hídrica, e adaptabilidade à consorciação, auxiliando em melhores produções em ambientes áridos e semiáridos. A utilização de sistemas consorciados acrescidos com a irrigação é de grande relevância para o manejo sustentável da pecuária local, uma vez que esse tipo de sistema maximiza o rendimento de forragem das áreas produtivas. Assim, objetivou-se com a presente revisão ressaltar a importância de estudos relacionados ao consórcio palma-sorgo em condições irrigadas no semiárido para subsidiar políticas de produção contínua de forragem. Os achados dessa revisão encorajam pesquisas no planejamento agrícola de área em ambientes negligenciados sob condições semiáridas com o consórcio de palma-sorgo para produção de forragem.

“…La faible productivité du sorgho a été documentée dans divers pays (Sainju et al, 2018 ;Dos Santos et al, 2017). Des facteurs comme la gestion des mauvaises herbes et densité de plantation ont été évalués dans des pays présentant les mêmes caractéristiques d'Haïti pour mesurer leurs impacts sur le rendement du sorgho (Alsaadawi et al, 2017 ;Tang et al, 2018). Mais en Haïti de pareilles études restent jusqu'à date très rares et concernent surtout les aflatoxines (Aristil et al, 2017).…”

Le sorgho (Sorghum bicolor. L) est la troisième céréale la plus consommée en Haïti. Il est cultivé dans presque tous les départements du pays y compris le Sud. Mais l'indisponibilité et de rapides augmentations du prix de l'engrais azoté (urée) sur le marché local portent à s'interroger sur de possibles solutions alternatives. L'objectif de cette étude est d'évaluer l'effet de 3 types de fertilisants chimique et biologiques (drêche, urée et compost) sur les paramètres végétatifs et productifs d'une variété de sorgho (Papesèk) dans le Sud d'Haïti. Durant la période allant de janvier à avril 2018, un dispositif Carré Latin a été mis en place pour tester la variété. Les données collectées ont été traitées avec le logiciel SPSS. Les résultats ont révélé que la masse panicule varie de 31 à 49 grammes par traitement. Le rendement en grain varie de 1,91 à 2,88 t/ha. La drêche (2,88 t/ha) a été significativement plus productive que la parcelle témoin (p<0,05). Mais aucune différence significative n'a été observée entre la drêche (2,88 t/ha), l'urée (2,58 t/ha) et le compost (2,53 t/ha) (p>0,05). De pareils résultats suggèrent que la drêche peut facilement substituer l'urée sur les parcelles de sorgho des agriculteurs d'Haïti.
