 | Abstract 418Growth curve and nutritive value of forage sorghum in the tropics.Pizarrol,EA; Vera,-RR; Liseu,-LC EPAMIG, Sete Lagoas, MG, Brazil. Tropical-Animal-Production. 1984, 9: 3, 175-184; 24 ref. Digestibility was estimated for fodder sorghum (Sorghum bicolor) cv. Sart in vitro and with 6 sheep, and for silage of cv. Sart and cv. Santa Eliza with sheep. From trials of yield in Brazil and digestibility it was concluded that sorghum had high potential growth and relatively high nutritive value under tropical conditions, although its protein content can be a limiting factor. This abstract relates to the following species: |
