ABSTRACT
A field experiment was conducted during two consecutive years of kharif 2014 and 2015 at Agricultural Research Station, Kota, to evaluate the quality of fodder sorghum .Significantly higher green fodder yield (907 q/ha), leaf: stem ratio (0.34 & 031), cruid protein (7.15 & 6.97 per cent), cruid fibre (24.92 & 24.46 per cent) and ash content (15.01 & 14.96 per cent) were observed during the both cutting with sowing of sugargraze 9.5 kg seed ha-1 over local chari (control).
Keywords: Sugargraze, ash, crude fibre, crude protein and leaf: stem ratio.
