Productivity, Nutrient Composition, and Hydrocyanic Acid Concentration of Super-2 Forage Sorghum at Different NPK Levels and Planting Spaces

Abstract: Low digestibility and toxicity of hydrocyanic acid (HCN) in sorghum forage are disadvantage for ruminant. Appropriate fertilizer application and planting strategy can improve sorghum yield and quality. A field experiment was aimed to investigate the productivity, nutrients content, and HCN concentration of Super-2 forage sorghum (Sorghum bicolor (L) Moench) at different planting spaces and levels of NPK fertilizer. The seeds were planted according to 3×3 factorial design in which the first factor was planting … Show more

“…Sorghum (Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench) is a feed crop with potential for development in Indonesia because of its tolerance and adaptability to dry environments (Sajimin et al, 2017;Wahyono et al, 2019). Perazzo et al (2017) and Astuti et al (2019) report that because of its morpho-physiological adaptations to water stress, sorghum is an important forage source in arid and semiarid regions, as well as in environments with uneven distribution of rainfall.…”

“…Examples in Africa of positive impacts of using fertilizers on sorghum yield include applications in Ethiopia (Bayu et al, 2006;Sebnie et al, 2020;Temeche et al, 2021), Senegal (Ganyo et al, 2019), and Ghana (Buah et al, 2012). The positive impact of the use of fertilizers extends also to sorghum's grain quality (Kaufman et al, 2013;Babiker, 2015;Nokerbekova et al, 2018;Astuti et al, 2019), and mitigating some abiotic stresses such as salinity stress (Zamani et al, 2020).…”

“…Abdullah and Suharlina [1], an alternative source of high forage protein but at an economical cost is to combine the main feed with types of legumes such as sorghum. Sorghum has been introduced and cultivated in Indonesia, particularly in dry and marginal areas [2], and it is a universal multipurpose crop for food, fodder, and potential biofuel feedstock [3].…”
