Within cuts consistent significant cultivar difference were only observed for biomass yields which ranged from 17.3 - 33.8 t ha-1 in the first cut to 3.2 and 17.4 t ha-1 in the second cut. Within and across cuts cultivar-dependent variations in fodder quality traits were statistically largely insignificant and inconsistent. date: 2015-01 date_type: published publisher: College of Veterinary Science (Guwahati) place_of_pub: Guwahati pagerange: 147 event_title: 9th Biennial Conference of the Animal Nutrition Association event_location: Guwahati, India event_dates: January 22-24, 2015 event_type: conference refereed: TRUE isbn: 9788190862172 book_title: Eco-responsive Feeding and Nutrition: Linking Livestock and Livelihoods: Abstract Papers editors_name: Pattanaik, A K editors_name: Jadhav, S E editors_name: Dutta, N editors_name: Verma, A K editors_name: Bhuyan, R official_url: https://cgspace.cgiar.org/bitstream/handle/10568/67266/f18.pdf?sequence=2&isAllowed=y related_url_url: https://scholar.google.co.in/scholar?as_q=Evaluation+of+Different+Cultivars+of+Sorghum+for+Fodder+Quality+and+Agronomic+Performance+in+Tropics&as_epq=&as_oq=&as_eq=&as_occt=title&as_sauthors=&as_publication=&as_ylo=&as_yhi=&btnG=&hl=en&as_sdt=0%2C5 related_url_url: https://cgspace.cgiar.org/bitstream/handle/10568/67266/f18.pdf?sequence=2&isAllowed=y related_url_type: pub related_url_type: org citation: Vinutha, K S and Rao, P S and Anil Kumar, G S and Prasad, K V S V and Reddy, Y R and Prakasham, R S and Yaswanth, V V N and Blummel, M (2015) Evaluation of different cultivars of sorghum for fodder quality and agronomic performance in Semi-Arid Tropics.
