Abstract:
Sorghum as an alternative commodity to substitute rice and other cereal crops, showing to its high adaptability to arid environments and limited rainfall. However, sorghum production has witnessed a decline, leading to a reduction in sorghum supply, thus impacting the provision of food and raw materials for industries. This research aims to ascertain farmers' decisions in selecting new superior varieties (NSV) and whether the utilization of NSV enhances farmers' productivity and income. The study was conducted in Patihan Village, Lamongan Regency, with a sample size of 55 sorghum farmers. Logi

Cultivated sorghum [Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench] is an important food security crop in the worlds semi-arid regions, including Africa and Asia. Genetic diversity in crops is an essential element necessary for any crop improvement programme. The study seeks to assess the causes of genetic diversity loss in Africa and possible solutions to diversity loss problems in Africa. High genetic diversity at local, regional and continental levels within Africa was reported by most of the studies reviewed. The trend of sorghum diversity in Africa remains unclear as some studies suggest an increase in sorg

The cow farmer in Padang was changed from semi-intensive to intensive because of city development. The intensive system requires farmers to be forage feeding cut and carried from field margins. The limited knowledge of smallholder farmers about the high quality of forage causes native grass to become the primary source of forage; meanwhile, the low nutrient content of native grass causes the low production and reproduction in cows. To overcome the adequacy of feed forage, both in quality and quantity, thus cultivation of forage was conducted on unproductive land such as peatlands. Generally, p
