Zambrano Cedeño,Genesis Briguitte(2023)PRODUCCIÓN DE FORRAJE VERDE HIDROPÓNICO DE SORGO FORRAJERO (Sorghum bicolor L.) COMO FUENTE ALTERNATIVA PARA LA ALIMENTACIÓN ANIMAL.Quevedo.UTEQ.67p.

The present research was conducted on the premises of the Technical State University of Quevedo, at the "La María" Campus (Rumiology Laboratory). The objective was to evaluate the production of hydroponic green forage from forage sorghum (Sorghum bicolor L.) as an alternative feed source for animals. The treatments were as follows: T1: Natural water; T2: Pseudomonas 1 x 108 x CFU/ml; T3: Serratia 1 x 108 x CFU/ml; T4: Vermicompost leachate, general CFU; T5: Bio-stimulants 1 x 108 x CFU/ml. A completely randomized design (CRD) was used. The variables were analyzed using Tukey's test (P<0.05). For agronomic performance, the variables measured were: plant height (PH), leaf diameter (LD), leaf length (LL), stem diameter (SD), and root length (RL). For bromatological composition, the variables measured were: dry matter (DM), organic matter (OM), neutral detergent fiber (NDF) and acid detergent fiber (FDA). The organic fertilizers influenced (P<0.05) the agronomic performance, with treatments T2, T3, and T4 showing significant effects on PH (15.39 cm, 15.34 cm, and 15.34 cm, respectively), as well as treatment T2 affecting SD (0.56 cm) and treatment T4 affecting RL (9.02 cm). In terms of bromatological composition, DM values were 11.97%, 11.69%, 11.68%, and 11.55% for treatments T3, T5, T4, and T2, respectively. NDF and ADF values were 53.75 and 51.96, and 29.32 and 29.33 for treatments T5 and T4, respectively. It can be concluded that organic fertilizers have a positive relationship with agronomic performance and bromatological composition.
