Abstract

A field experiment was conducted for Evaluation of Spacing and Fertility Levels for Multi-Cut Forage Sorghum. It was found that maximum increase in maximum increase in green and dry fodder yield was obtained with spacing 30 cm x 10 cm (54.77 and 15.91 t/ha, respectively) with the highest net returns ( 44881 /ha) and B-C ratio (1.41) and application of 125% RDF proved most economically as it recorded highest net returns ( 46607 /ha) and B C ratio (1.42) compared to 75% RDF and 100% RDF.
