Determination of Agricultural Characteristics of Some Silage Sorghum and Sudan Grass Varieties Grown as Second Product
Abstract
The
aim of this paper was to investigate some plant traits and yield of silage
sorghum cultivars and sudangrass grown as the second crop in the center of
agricultural research and applying, in the 2015 year. In the experiment was
used three sorghum (Rox, Early Sumac, and Leoti), two sorghum x sudangrass
hybrid (Nutri Honey and Hay Day) and one, Sudan-grass (Gözde 80) under
irrigated conditions of Iğdır. The experimental layout was completely
randomized block design with three replicates. Plant height of cultivars (cm),
dry matter ratio (%), green herbage and dry matter yield (kg da-1),
leaf ratio (%), the stem ratio (%), ear rate (%), the number of leaves per
plant and the plant weight (g) was determined in the trial. According to
results of experiments, plant heights (197.1-299.4 cm), green yield
(3482-8337 kg da-1), dry matter ratio (32.0-38.0 %), dry matter
yield (1141.2-2658.1 kg
da-1), leaf ratio (15.7-20.0%), the stem ratio (71-78 %), the
panicle ratio (7.3-9.3%), the number of leaves (9.5-12.5), the plant weight
(375.5-875.4 g plant-1) was obtained. Additionally, positive and a
significant correlation was observed between the of plant weight and the dry
matter yield on the green herbage yield, but the effects of plant height, leaf,
stem, leaves rates were insignificant. These results suggested that Hay Day,
Leoti and Early Sumac will be able to grow as a silage in respect of green
herbage and dry matter yields under the ecological condition of this region.
