Sweet sorghum genotypes testing in the high latitude rainfed steppes of the North Kazakhstan (for feed and biofuel) [Electronic Resource]

By: Contributor(s): Material type: ArticleArticleLanguage: English Publication details: Valley Cottage, N.Y., S.U. : David Publishing Company, 2015.Subject(s): Online resources: In: Journal of Environmental Science and Engineering B v. 4, no. 1, p. 25-30Summary: Twenty-eight sweet sorghum (Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench) genotypes of the different ecological and geographic origins: Kazakhstan, Russia, India, Uzbekistan, and China were tested in the high latitude rainfed conditions of northern Kazakhstan. The genotypes demonstrated high biomass production (up to 100 t·ha-1 and more). The genotypes ripening to full reproductive seeds were selected for seed production and introduction in the northern Kazakhstan. Lactic acid bacteria Lactobacillus plantarum S-1, Streptococcus thermophilus F-1 and Lactococcus lactis F-4 essentially enhance the fermentation process, suppressing undesirable microbiological processes, reducing the loss of nutrient compounds, accelerating in 2 times maturation ensilage process and providing higher quality of the feed product.
