Abstract

Sorghum is a cereal crop that has the potential to be developed as an animal feed crop. This study aimed to determine the effect of giving mycorrhizal fungi at different levels (0, 10 grams, and 20 grams/plant) and different watering frequencies (every day, 4 days, 8 days) on the morphology and the production of forage nutrients of sorghum. This research was carried out in the Greenhouse of Faculty of Animal Science, Universitas Gadjah Mada. This study used a completely randomized design with a 3 x 3 factorial pattern. The variables observed were sorghum morphology, fresh production, and forage nutrient production (DM, OM, CP, CF, and CL). The results showed that the highest sorghum nutrients production (DM, OM, CP, CF, and CL) was found in the mycorrhizal treatment of 10 g/plant and the highest-fiber production was in the treatment without mycorrhizal. The frequency of daily watering did not have a significant effect on sorghum nutrients production. From the study results, the administration of mycorrhizal fungi with different levels increased sorghum nutrients production and reduced crude fiber production. The best treatment was giving mycorrhizae 10 grams/polybag (M10). Different watering frequencies did not have a significant effect on sorghum nutrients production.
