Combined Application of Organic and Inorganic Amendments Improved the Yield and Nutritional Quality of Forage Sorghum

The use of organic amendments is seen to be a promising method for enhancing crop productivity and soil health. Therefore, this study was performed two consecutive years (2019 2020) determine the effects biochar (BC), sugar industry press mud (MUD), poultry manure (PM) combined with inorganic on yield nutritional quality forage sorghum at College Agriculture, Bahauddin Zakariya University, Bahadur sub-campus, Layyah, Pakistan. treatments were comprised following: control (no or added); recommended dose NPK (59:72:30 kg ha?1); half (29.5:36:15 5 t ha?1; (MUD) 40 (BC) 11 BC + NPK; MUD PM NPK. carried out in triplicate randomized complete block design. Results revealed that application 1/2 significantly enhanced plant height (201 cm), number leaves (17), stem diameter (18 mm), dry weight (201.7 g), leaf (30.4 area (184.3 cm2), green (31.8 Mg ha?1), biomass (12.7 ha?1) compared treatment. Forage traits, including crude protein (CP), brix percentage, acid detergent fiber (ADF), lignin (ADL), showed maximum value ADF ADL are linked lower digestibility; therefore, it concluded can improve productivity, yield, CP sorghum, but reduces digestibility under semi-arid conditions, such as those Central
