Title Genotype x Environment Interaction Study for Fodder and Quality Attributes in Sorghum
 
Creator Naval, Kishor
 
Subject 633.25 Cereal Grasses
 
Description Sorghum {Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench) is a major cereal grown as a dual-purpose crop for food, feed and fodder adapted to the drought-prone semi-arid tropical (SAT) regions of the world. It ranks fifth among all cereals in the world production, being exceeded by wheat, rice, maize and barley. Only 8.3 million hectare of the country's cropped area is under fodder crops and there is little scope for its further expansion. As a forage crop in India, sorghum occupies the maximum area (3 million hectare) with a productivity of 35-70 tonnes per hectare, having most of the acreage in northern India (Rana etal, 1998).
