Bakıcı, Y. and Demirel, M. 2004. Determination of qualities of corn, sorghum, sudangrass and sorghum x sudangrass hybrid silages. J. Appl. Anim. Res., 26: 45–48.
To determine the silage qualities plants of corn (C), sorghum (S), sudangrass (SU) and sorghum x sudangrass hybrid (SSUH) were harvested at milk stage and incubated in concrete silos for 70 days. The corn silage was superior to the other three silages in terms of lactic and butyric acid contents, digestibilities of proximate principles except CP, the other three generally not differing among themselves. All the four silages were of high quality in terms of physical properties and flieg points and these crops are recommended for silage making.
