Growth and nutrition in plants

The present work shows the chemical and bromatological results of maize forage under the hydroponics method for animal feeding, cultivated in the section of University “Dr. Francisco Maeda” in Ituverava-SP, using seeds of three maize varieties without treatment produced by CATI, (AL - 30, AL -34 and AL - Bandeirante). Were tested with four repetitions in factorial plan, each treatment composed by a different variety, cultivated in two substratum type (sugarcane bagasse and rice hulls), in the sowing density (2Kg/m2) and with age of cut of 41 days. For the climate conditions studied, it was ended that the forage of hydroponics maize obtained by the three cultivate presented adequate levels of nutrients and good forage potential for use in the animal feeding, and the rice hulls produced better quality forage.
