Abstract

In a field experiment with grain sorghum, applications of 60 and 120 pounds per acre of nitrogen gave significant increases in both content and yield of protein in the grain and forage. Apparent nitrogen recovery was 83.2 and 89.6%, respectively, when 60 and 120 pounds of nitrogen per acre were applied.
