A Research on Forage Yield and Its Components In Response to Different Sowing Rate and Row Distance of Sorghum (Sorghum bicolor Moench.) in Turkey

This research was carried out to determine the sowing rate and row distance in Edirne province of Thrace Region in 1993 season. According to the results of some important characteristics of sorghum and their interactions were statistically significant. In Havsa and Uzunk'opr& the plant height were 70.36 and 95.28cm respectively, within each sowing rate were not significant. Number of tiller were not significant in distance and individual location Increasing the sowing rate kom I to 3 kg/da and the location Havsa and Umnkoprii resulted in significant stem diameter variation. Variation in 6-esh fodder yield has been found significant in row distance sowing rate and location 1 kglda seed rate with 30 cm row distance together are recommended to the farmer community to obtain the optimum profit.
