| dc.description | Sorghum (Sorghum vulgare) is currently considered one of the nutritional foods of livestock, it is considered more efficient because it has an adaptive capacity to the land and environment superior to any other forage plant with the same purposes, this grass has the characteristic of drought resistant and grows well under a wide range of soil conditions. The purpose of the documentary research was to analyze the use of sorghum (Sorghum vulgare) silage as a feed supplement in beef and dairy cattle. It was carried out using the Qualitative and Exploratory method in academic Google databases, indexed journals, Dspace of universities and scientific articles. Due to the scarcity of forage in times of drought, the farmer chooses to sell his cattle instead of looking for food alternatives that help improve their productive performance. The use of sorghum in the livestock industry is an option that benefits the farmer because he does not need a higher investment cost and in this way obtains greater profitability in livestock because sorghum has a higher energy and protein content compared to corn, providing up to 20% of its energy value for both beef and dairy cattle, covering all their nutritional requirements. For the cattle to obtain a weight gain and greater dairy production, it is necessary to know the nutritional requirements of each of the stages such as calves, heifers, or cattle destined for fattening. In conclusion, its high level of protein and energy make this a profitable product within livestock thanks to its low production cost. | |

| dc.description | El sorgo (Sorghum vulgare) actualmente es considerado uno de los alimentos nutricionales del ganado, se considera más eficiente por cuanto este tiene una capacidad adaptativa a los terrenos y ambiente superior a cualquier otra planta forrajera con fines iguales, esta gramínea posee como característica la resistencia a la sequía y que crece bien bajo una amplia gama de condiciones en el suelo. El propósito de la investigación documental fue analizar el uso de ensilaje de sorgo (Sorghum vulgare) como suplemento alimenticio en bovinos productores de carne y leche. Se realizó mediante el método Cualitativo y Exploratorio en bases de datos Google académico, revistas indexadas, Dspace de universidades y artículos científicos. Debido a la escasez del forraje en tiempos de sequía el ganadero opta por vender su ganado en lugar de buscar alternativas alimenticias que ayuden a mejorar su rendimiento productivo. El uso del sorgo en la industria ganadera es una opción que beneficia al ganadero porque no necesita mayor costo de inversión y de esta manera obtiene mayor rentabilidad en el ganado debido a que el sorgo tiene mayor contenido energético y proteico en comparación con el maíz, aportando hasta un 20% de su valor energético tanto el ganado de carne como de leche cubriendo todos sus requerimientos nutricionales. Para que el ganado obtenga una ganancia de peso y mayor producción de lácteos se necesita saber los requerimientos nutricionales de cada una de las etapas como terneras, novillas, o ganado destinado para engorde. Como conclusión por su alto nivel de proteína y energía hacen de este un producto rentable dentro de la ganadería gracias además de a su bajo costo de producción. | |
