Sorgo GRAZER N Il sorgo GRAZER N è un incrocio di sorgo zuccherino con sorgo gentile o sudangrass (S. bicolor x S. sudanense), che presenta notevoli vantaggi perché unisce i pregi dei sorghi zuccherini (buon contenuto in zucchero ed alta capacità produttiva) a quelli dei sorghi gentili (forte capacità di accrescimento, rapidità di ricaccio e stabilità di pianta). Recenti esperienze evidenziano la capacità di accrescimento di GRAZER N quantificabile in: 2,7 culmi per pianta dopo il primo taglio 5,5 culmi per pianta dopo il secondo taglio 6,0 culmi per pianta dopo il terzo taglio Il GRAZER N può essere destinato per foraggio verde, per fieno, per pascolo, trinciato ed insilato per uso zootecnico o per biomassa ad uso energetico.
Foraggio verde, fieno, pascolo Se la destinazione è per foraggio verde o fieno, Io sfalcio deve essere fatto quando la pianta ha raggiunto l'altezza di 80/100 cm (prima della fase di botticella). In questa fase vegetativa il foraggio presenta il più alto contenuto di proteine e zuccheri. Il contenuto proteico varia, infatti, in funzione dello stadio vegetativo (dal 18-20% s.s. nelle fasi giovanili fino al 8-10% s.s. in fioritura). Data la forte capacità di ricaccio di questo ibrido, con semine primaverili ed in ambienti fertili con buona disponibilità idrica e con il taglio da foraggio sopradescritto, si possono ottenere fino a 4-5 sfalci per anno. Per ottenere il massimo della produzione è opportuno che, dopo il taglio, si effettui una distribuzione di 40-50 kg/ha di Azoto facendo seguire un'irrigazione. Nel caso si voglia produrre fieno, Io sfalcio dovrà essere effettuato con falcia-condizionatrice per rendere più rapida ed uniforme l'essiccazione del foraggio che verrà successivamente imballato. Il fieno di GRAZER N è molto appetito dal bestiame ed ha un ottimo valore nutritivo, come si può rilevare dall'analisi qui riportata: FIENO DI GRAZER N Protidi grezzi (N x 6.25) Lipidi grezzi (etere petrolio) Fibra grezza (Weende) Ceneri Estrattivi inazotati Unità foraggiere Silice ADF NDF

VERSIONE 2008
Negli allevamenti di ovini, il GRAZER N viene utilizzato come pascolo. Per questo uso è opportuno provvedere alla semina in primavera avanzata, quando le temperature consentono uno sviluppo molto rapido. Con semina di maggio, la coltura può essere pronta dopo soli 20-30 giorni. In ambienti ben dotati di umidità è possibile proseguire le semine fino al 15 luglio senza pregiudicare eccessivamente l'esito della coltura. E' stato dimostrato che, in condizioni adeguate di dotazione idrica, l'alto ritmo di accrescimento e la velocità di sviluppo di nuove foglie consentono di rinnovare il pascolo di GRAZER N ogni mattina. Per la sua resistenza alla siccità e la notevole capacità di accestimento, GRAZER N produce un pascolo ottimo come qualità e quantità. Si raccomanda di non far pascolare e non alimentare equini con foraggio fresco di GRAZER N.
Trinciato e insilato ad uso zootecnico o energetico Oltre agli utilizzi conosciuti e sopradescritti, negli ultimi anni, alcune aziende agricole zootecniche delle province lombarde, hanno utilizzato GRAZER N in sostituzione dei prati polifiti con soddisfazione, sia dal punto di vista agronomico che zootecnico. Sono prevedibili da 2 a 3 sfalci, a seconda delle condizioni ambientali, di fertilità del terreno e dell’epoca di semina, ogni 45-60 giorni. Per questi utilizzi, la raccolta di GRAZER N si effettua quando la pianta del sorgo è alta tra i 140 cm e i 160 cm (fase di botticella), utilizzando una falcia-condizionatrice-andanatrice. Dopo 24-36 ore di pre-appassimento, con un carroautocaricante munito di coltelli (4-5 cm distanza fra i coltelli), si provvederà alla raccolta tagliando il prodotto (8-10 cm). Si effettua successivamente l’insilamento di un prodotto al 2528% s.s. Ulteriori esperienze hanno evidenziato che il sorgo GRAZER N può essere raccolto e trinciato contemporaneamente dalle moderne trince con punta KEMPER, all’emissione del panicolo. Si riporta un’analisi tipo di un insilato di GRAZER N.

Dopo un adeguato periodo in trincea il prodotto può essere utilizzato nella razione alimentare nell’ordine dei 10-15 kg/giorno per capo. Alla luce di questi risultati produttivi, abbiamo sperimentato l’utilizzo di GRAZER N per la produzione di BIOGAS utilizzando le stesse pratiche agronomiche. Il sorgo GRAZER N si è infatti dimostrato un ottimo substrato per la digestione anaerobica e quindi per la produzione di biogas. I risultati preliminari della nostra sperimentazione hanno 3 evidenziato una resa unitaria in biogas di 0.22 m /kg s.s. con una resa media in metano del 5355%. Uno sfalcio di GRAZER N (125 q/ha s.s.) può quindi fornire una resa in metano di circa 3 2800 m /ha.

Queste caratteristiche rendono GRAZER N particolarmente interessante soprattutto per gli ambienti meno vocati ad altre colture energetiche, come il mais. Inoltre, la coltivazione del sorgo, anche in rotazione al mais e in successione a colture autunno-vernine, permette una più facile ed efficace gestione della componente liquida del digestato, consentendo di frazionarne lo spargimento dopo ogni sfalcio e riducendone tempi e dimensioni dello stoccaggio.
Brevi cenni di tecnica colturale Epoca di semina Per germinare e per ottenere un accrescimento rapido, il sorgo necessita di una temperatura del terreno di almeno 12-15°C. Se ne consiglia la semina, quindi, orientativamente 10-15 giorni dopo le normali semine del mais. In buone condizioni climatiche e di umidità, la pianta raggiunge Io stadio di 5 foglie dopo 12 giorni. Dopo circa 30 giorni raggiunge un’altezza di 30 cm (11 foglie). In seguito, durante i mesi estivi con temperature di 25-27°C e con buon approvvigionamento idrico, può crescere da 4 a 6 centimetri al giorno. E’ possibile seminare GRAZER N in successione a cereale vernino trinciato, dalla seconda metà di maggio.

Distanza tra le file Per produzione sia di foraggio verde, che fieno o pascolo è consigliabile seminare a file distanti 17-40 cm in funzione delle seminatrici aziendali. Per questo scopo, oltre alle seminatrici di precisione (utilizzando un normale disco per sorgo), si possono utilizzare anche seminatrici da grano, chiudendo alcune bocchette per ottenere la distanza tra le file desiderata. La semina può essere effettuata anche a spaglio, ma in questo caso avremmo una difformità di emergenza, profondità, investimento ed un maggior consumo di seme. Per questi utilizzi sono consigliabili
VERSIONE 2008
da 50 a 70 kg di seme per ettaro in funzione delle disponibilità idriche. Per la produzione di trinciato zootecnico o energetico, le pratiche agronomiche da adottare prevedono la semina a 17-40 cm tra le file, con seminatrici di precisione o a fila continua. La quantità di seme, in questo caso, è in dipendenza del cantiere di raccolta previsto: se si prevede lo sfalcio con falcia-condizionatrice e successiva trinciatura con carro trincianteautocaricante, per ottenere steli uniformi e facilmente condizionabili, utilizzare 65-75 kg di seme/ha in dipendenza della fertilità del terreno. Se si raccoglierà con un unico passaggio (punta KEMPER), le migliori performance sono ottenute con 50-60 kg/ha di seme. Fare riferimento alla tabella in appendice per la regolazione della distanza sulla fila. Concimazione In terreni di buona o media fertilità, le quantità dovranno essere di 200 kg/ha di N; 100 kg/ha di P O5 e 100 kg/ha di K O. Se si opera in ambiente irriguo, ricordiamo che dopo ogni sfalcio è opportuno distribuire 40-50 kg/ha di Azoto. Per le Aziende che producono biogas da biomassa, dopo ogni sfalcio, potrebbe essere distribuita la componente liquida del digestato, fonte di N (il contenuto in N del digestato è variabile in funzione della dieta del digestore).

Buona azione su graminacee, abutilon) La lotta alle infestanti si avvantaggia della tecnica della falsa semina seguita da interventi con Roundup. Da notare la mancanza di graminicidi specifici in post emergenza. Irrigazione Il sorgo ha un minor fabbisogno idrico rispetto al mais (circa il 65% del consumo idrico del mais per unità di sostanza secca prodotta). In particolari situazioni di stress idrico la coltura subisce un rallentamento dello sviluppo vegetativo ma risponde prontamente agli apporti idrici naturali o irrigui. Si avvantaggia di eventuali apporti idrici dopo ogni sfalcio.
