Whole-plant dry matter (DM) yields were highest at the late-dough stage of kernel maturity, whereas DM content and grain yields steadily increased as maturity advanced. A voluntary intake and digestion trial was conducted with 12 grain and forage sorghum silages harvested at the late-dough stage in 1989. The highest silage DM intakes and digestibilities were obtained with the high-grain yielding hybrids.BeefForage sorghumCultivarMaturityIntakeDigestibilityEffects of maturity at harvest and cultivar on agronomic performance of forage sorghum and the nutritive value of selected sorghum silagesConference paper
