Abstract: Experimental results on “Organoleptic and proximate characteristics of Parching Sorghum Genotypes in response to Management of Nitrogen†during rabi 2017 revealed that in respect of proximate analysis, the fodder from parching sorghum genotype Gulbhendi Local-1 reported significantly higher protein, non-reducing and total sugar content and the lowest reducing sugar (1.03%) and found significantly superior over the genotype Phule Madhur (1.12%). Good organoleptic parameters viz., aroma and taste than the genotype Gulbhendi Local-1. The genotype Phule Madhur reported free threshability over the genotype Gulbhendi Local-1. Similarly, the fodder from Gulbhendi Local-1 found superior over Phule madhur with respect to crude protein, crude fibre, Ether Extract and total ash. However, the genotype Phule Madhur found better in producing Nitrogen free extract. Among the nitrogen management treatments, application of 125 per cent RDN ha-1 through urea recorded higher non-reducing sugar, total sugar and protein content, and the lowest reducing sugar which were significantly superior over other nitrogen management treatments. However, proximate analysis such as aroma, taste and also the threshability were non significant. In respect of crude protein, ether extract, total ash and nitrogen free extract application of 125% RDN through urea also proved significantly superior over other nitrogen management treatments.
