Nitrogen Fertilization and Cutting Management of Sudangrasses and Millets1

K. R. Broyles and H. A. Fribourg2

Synopsis: Gahi-1 pearl millet outyielded and contained more N than did Piper or Sweet Sudangrasses, both of which outproduced German millet. Cutting at early-bloom to 4-inch stubble produced largest yields, followed by cutting at 30 inches to 10- or 6-inch stubble, and at 20 inches to 6-inch stubble. Nitrogen production decreased in the same order except the early-bloom cutting was lowest. Nitrogen fertilizer increased yield, N recovered, and N percentage in forage.

1 Contribution from the Department of Agronomy, Tennessee Agr. Exp. Sta., Knoxville. Part of a thesis submitted to the University of Tennessee by the senior author in partial fulfillment of requirements for the M.S. degree.

2 Formerly graduate student, Department of Agronomy, University of Tennessee (now Assistant County Agent, Tennessee Agr. Ext. Service), and Associate Agronomist, Department of Agronomy, Tennessee Agr. Exp. Sta., respectively.

Received for publication August 1, 1958.
