  • Nutritional value of sorghum silages Marielly Maria Almeida Moura Daniel Ananias de Assis Pires Renê Ferreira Costa Daniella Cangussú Tolentino João Paulo Sampaio Rigueira Eleuza Clarete Junqueira de Sales Agrociencias genotypes Preserved food nutritional quality This study aimed to evaluate the nutritional characteristics and quality of silages of five sorghum genotypes, namely: Volumax, AG2005E , Qualimax, BRS610 and AG2501. The study was conducted at the Experimental Farm Unimontes, in the municipality of Janaúba, state of Minas Gerais. The treatments were distributed in a randomized block design with four replicat es. Data were tested by analysis of variance and means were compared by Sco tt-Knott test at a significance level of 5%. The pH values ranged from 3.93 and 4.10. Genotypes differed in all studied nutritional characteristics (p < 0.05). For the acid detergent fiber, differences were dete cted between the genotypes, AG2501 (35.66%), Volumax (34.89%), AG2005E (34.53%), Qualimax (32.39%) and BRS610 (33.60%). Th e high participation of lignin was verified in all genotypes except for Volumax (4. 14%). All silages were with in the recommended range 50-65% for in vitro dry matter digestibility and classified as having good qu ality, however only the AG2005E genotype met nitrogen requirements for microb ial fermentation, with 7.06% crude protein. 2017 artículo científico 1806-2636 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=303150382004 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=3031 Acta Scientiarum.
