Advantages of Forage Sorghum for Silage in Limited Input Systems
Water shortages are threatening the sustainability of irrigated agriculture in dry environments such as the Southern High Plains (SHP) of the U.S. Corn has been a staple silage crop grown to supply the enormous forage demand associated with dairy and beef feeding industries. The relatively high water use of corn, however, is limiting the extent to which corn can be grown. Although irrigated, co...
متن کاملSilage from tropical cereals and forage crops
The preservation of forages by ensiling has been a well known technology for many years and is popular in North America and Europe. This technology requires high investment in facilities, accurate timing in the several stages of the ensiling process, and better understanding of the whole process than hay making demands. In addition to these demands, silage making and management in tropical cond...
متن کاملReevaluating On-farm Inputs in Corn and Forage Sorghum Silage Systems
Beef and dairy industries form the base of livestock production in New Mexico. In 2003, Curry, Roosevelt, and Chaves counties accounted for over 48% of all livestock cash receipts in the state (New Mexico Agricultural Statistics, 2003). Milk is the state’s number one cash commodity, producing over $790 million in 2003; and these three counties accounted for over 63% of milk cow numbers and milk...
متن کاملLignin-enriched Fermentation Residues from Bioethanol Production of Fast-growing Poplar and Forage Sorghum
The current challenges in developing a cost-effective bioethanol industry include the production of not only high-volume, low cost biofuels but also high-value products with minimal downstream waste. The up-grading of side-stream lignins from bioethanol production plants to novel high-value products will improve the profitability of the bioethanol industry; to do that, a precise understanding o...
متن کاملQTL mapping of forage yield and forage yield component traits in Sorghum bicolor x S. sudanense.
The sorghum-sudangrass hybrid (Sorghum bicolor x S. sudanense) is an important forage crop. However, little is known about the genetic mechanisms related to forage yield and the 4 forage yield component traits in this forage crop. In this study, a linkage map was constructed with 124 assigned SSR markers using an F2 mapping population derived from the crossing of sorghum Tx623A and sudangrass S...
