“…The inclusion level of molasses might have influenced the colour of the silage. According to Handriati et al [ 26 ], adding molasses might have changed the colour of the silage. The blackish-brown colour of molasses can cause the discolouration of the cassava leaf silage, resulting in a deviation from the normal greenish colour.…”

“…It is found in stressed plants formed by enzymatic reactions due to unsuitable environmental conditions such as drought. Prussic acid in sorghum is classified as high; in sorghum BMR and super-2 were 307.03 and 283.59 ppm, respectively [5]. The content of prussic acid in sorghum should not exceed 200 ppm in fresh conditions.…”

“…The most effective treatment is anaerobic fermentation. The addition of 4% molasses to the silage BMR and super-2 can reduce the levels of prussic acid up to 70 to 80% [5].…”

This study aimed to determine the effect of sorghum varieties (Brown Midrib Resistance and Super-2) on digestibility and nitrogen balance. Twelve female Bligon goats with an average body weight of 24.33±2.83 kg were divided into 3 groups of treatments with 4 replications, following a Completely Randomized Design (CRD) one-way pattern, T1 = complete feed based on fresh of Pennisetum purpureum as a control, T2 = complete feed based on silage of sorghum Brown Midrib Resistance (BMR), and T3 = complete feed based on silage of sorghum super-2. The observed parameters were nutrient feed intake, nutrient digestibility, and nitrogen balance. Data were processed using Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS) version 23. Data were analyzed by one-way of variance analysis and significantly different treatments, further tested with Duncan's New Multiple Range Tests (DMRT). The results showed that feeding use of a complete feed of sorghum BMR silage on Bligon goats reduced nutrient feed intake (P<0.05) compared to complete feed of sorghum super-2, while nutrient digestibility and nitrogen balance showed the same results for both sorghum varieties (P>0.05). Therefore we concluded that sorghum BMR was better than sorghum super-2.

“…Sorghum forages are usually processed into silage to remove the prussic acid content. During silage making (ensilage), the prussic acid content in sorghum forage can be reduced by more than 70% [ 8 ]. A total mixed ration (TMR) is used for feeding cows that combines feeds formulated for a specific nutrient content into a single feed mix.…”

Objectives: The goal of this research was to figure out the effect of the local sorghum as silage on the performance of Bligon goats. Microbial protein synthesis, digestible nutrients, and average daily weight gain (ADWG) were measured to evaluate the goats’ performance. Materials and Methods: The study was designed in a completely randomized design with a one-way pattern. Twelve female Bligon goats with 24.33 ± 2.83 kg (mean ± SEM) initial body weight were divided into three groups of total mixed ration (TMR) treatments. Group 1 received fresh Napier grass (FNG) as a control, group 2 received imported sorghum silage (ISS) of brown midrib resistance (BMR), and group 3 received local sorghum silage (LSS) of super-2. Analysis of variance was used to analyze the data on microbial protein synthesis and feed intake during the research. On the contrary, analysis of covariance was used to analyze ADWG with initial weight as a covariate. Results: Microbial protein synthesis, feed-intake, and ADWG of goats that received TMR based on silage of two varieties of sorghum, namely BMR (ISS) and super-2 (LSS), were lower (p < 0.05) than control. However, there was no significant difference between both TMR based on sorghum silages. ISS’s feed conversion was better than LSS (p < 0.05), and FNG was the best. Sorghum silage as a basal ration in TMR had lower microbial protein synthesis but higher total digestible nutrient content than fresh forage, such as Napier grass. The sorghum varieties did not affect the microbial protein synthesis, digestible nutrients, and ADWG of Bligon goats. However, ISS treatment had higher feed efficiency than LSS. Conclusion: The local sorghum (super-2) silage can be used as ruminant feed as well as imported sorghum (BMR) offered as TMR. However, regardless of the cultivar, TMR based on sorghum silage cannot replace TMR based on fresh Napier grass.
