Effect of irrigation on content of cellulose in millet stalk (Panicum miliaceum L.) in Aydın Turkey conditions

Proso millet stalks are an under-utilized material that remains after the harvest. Given share of large proso in total production Turkey, more than 8% could be easily available as a raw fabrication fuels. Unlike corn, not used green fodder or silage due to higher cellulose content and smaller leaves for animal feeding. In this study, usability plant biofuel feature was tested terms chemical parameters such cellulose, lignin some other nutritional elements. The impact on plants grown harvested materials by applying control (non-irrigated) four irrigation levels (50%, 75%, 100% 125%) investigated. Results study show highest values were obtained 125% level.
