Rao, P.S.Blümmel, MichaelReddy, B.V.S.[Enhancement of in vitro digestibility of sorghum (Sorghum bicolor (L) Moench) in brown midrib (bmr) mutant derivatives of bmr1 and bmr7]Enhancement of in vitro digestibility of sorghum (Sorghum bicolor (L) Moench) in brown midrib (bmr) mutant derivatives of bmr1 and bmr7

Soaring prices of fossil fuels, geo-political issues and environmental pollution associated with fossil fuel use has led to worldwide interest in the production and use of bio-fuels. Both the developed and developing countries have developed a range of policies to encourage production of combusti...

Kumar, A.Reddy, B.V.S.Reddy, C.R.Blümmel, MichaelRao, P.S.Ramaiah, B.Reddy, P.S.[Enhancing the harvest window for supply chain management of sweet sorghum for ethanol production]Enhancing the harvest window for supply chain management of sweet sorghum for ethanol production

Twenty four sorghum stovers were investigated with sheep for organic matter digestibility (OMD) and intake (OMI), and for digestible organic matter intake (DOMI) and for relations between laboratory fodder quality traits and these in vivo measurements. Statistically highly significant and nutriti...


Ramkrishna, R.C.Khan, A.A.Prasad, K.V.S.V.Ravi, D.Reddy, B.V.S.Rego, T.Blümmel, Michael[Stover quality traits for improvement of dual-purpose sorghum]Stover quality traits for improvement of dual-purpose sorghum

Basing dual-purpose sorghum genetic improvement work on untested laboratory traits could clearly present uncertain results for the breeding objective. In that context, this study compares a wide range of chemical (nitrogen, fiber constituents neutral detergent fiber (NDF), acid detergent fiber (A...


Blümmel, MichaelReddy, B.V.S.[Stover fodder quality traits for dual-purpose sorghum genetic improvement]Stover fodder quality traits for dual-purpose sorghum genetic improvement

In the semi-arid tropics, over two-third’s of the world’s people depend on agriculture within which livestock play a major role in building rural livelihoods. Crop residues (fodder/stover) are important feed resources for ruminants. This review was undertaken with the objective of improving under...


Reddy, B.V.S.Sanjana Reddy, P.Bidinger, F.R.Blümmel, Michael[Crop management factors influencing yield and quality of crop residues]Crop management factors influencing yield and quality of crop residues

Sweet sorghum is a multipurpose crop that comes up well under rainfed conditions in semi-arid tropics. While the stalk juice from sweet sorghum used for ethanol production, its grain is used for food and the bagasse as animal feed. The investigation had four objectives: 1) to popularize sweet sor...


Kumar, A.Reddy, B.V.S.Blümmel, MichaelSamireddypalle, A.Ramana Reddy, Y.Reddy, R.Rao, P.S.Reddy, P.S.[On-farm evaluation of elite sweet sorghum genotypes for grain and stover yields and fodder quality]On-farm evaluation of elite sweet sorghum genotypes for grain and stover yields and fodder quality

Sorghum[Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench] stover can provide an abundant alternative source of fermentable sugars through enzymatic hydrolysis (Vermerris et al., 2007). While production of cellulosic ethanol from stover is feasible from an energy-balance perspective, its production is currently not ec...


Reddy, B.V.S.Kumar, A.A.Rao, P.S.Reddy, P.S.Blümmel, Michael[Brown midrib sorghum for second-generation ethanol production. Abstract]Brown midrib sorghum for second-generation ethanol production. Abstract

The overall objective of this work was to investigate variation in grain yield (GY), stover yield (SY), fodder quality of stover and their association in sorghum and pearl millet. These relationships were investigated in India in 12 genotypes of sorghum and six genotypes of pearl millet grown und...


Blümmel, MichaelZerbini, E.Reddy, B.V.S.Hash, C.T.Bidinger, F.R.Khan, A.A.[Improving the production and utilization of sorghum and pearl millet as livestock feed: progress towards dual-purpose genotypes]Improving the production and utilization of sorghum and pearl millet as livestock feed: progress towards dual-purpose genotypes

The overall objective of this work was the identification of simple, yet accurate, assessments of fodder quality of sorghum and pearl millet stover in crop improvement programs. Stover from 12 genotypes of sorghum and six genotypes of pearl millet grown under high and low fertilizer application w...
