Nitrogen Fertilization and Cutting Management of Sudangrasses and Millets1

Abstract: Synopsis Gahi‐1 pearl millet outyielded and contained more N than did Piper or Sweet Sudangrasses, both of which outproduced German millet. Cutting at early‐bloom to 4‐inch stubble produced largest yields, followed by cutting at 30 inches to 10‐ or 6‐inch stubble, and at 20 inches to 6‐inch stubble. Nitrogen production decreased in the same order except the early‐bloom cutting was lowest. Nitrogen fertilizer increased yield, N recovered, and N percentage in forage.

“…O efeito positivo da adubação nitrogenada sobre o rendimento e qualidade da forragem de sorgo é unanimemente relatado por diversos pesquisadores, assim Broyles & Fribourg (1959), Hart & Burton (1965) e Jung et al (1964 relatam aumentos na produção e qualidade da forragem de sorgos até 280 kg de N/ha. Medeiros et al (1979) estudando o rendimento e a qualidade da cultivar sorgo sordan (Sorghum bicolor x Sorghum sudanense) submetido a diferentes níveis de adubação nitrogenada observaram variações na massa seca de 9,1 a 16,5 t/ha e no teor de PB de 10 a 14%, em resposta às doses de N (0; 100; 200 e 300 kg N/ha).…”

“…In general, DM yields are higher with more frequent harvests and shorter stubble heights. Broyles and Fribourg (1959) reported that regrowth of millet was more rapid from 15.24 and 20.32 cm stubble heights than from 7.62 and 10.16 cm stubble heights. In their work, increased defoliation tended to decrease tiller production.…”

“…Results of experiments in which sudangrass and pearl millet were compared show mixed results. Broyles and Fribourg (1959) found that Gahi‐1 pearl millet out‐yielded sudangrass. Clark et al (1965) reported similar yields of dry matter (DM) produced by sudangrass, a sorghum‐sudangrass hybrid, and pearl millet in Maryland, as well as similar amounts of milk produced by cows fed these three grasses.…”
