Abstract
The recent demand for poultry meat products in Sudan has led to tremendous expansion in the poultry industry. There is a need to assess the potential impacts of chicken manure on crop yield and in particular evaluating the critical application levels. Field experiments were conducted on Hard, Non-Cracking Sandy Clay (Gardud) soil of North Kordofan State, Sudan, to study the effects of tillage (chisel) and chicken manure on the yield of sorghum(Sorghum bicolor (L.)Moench) variety Arfaagadamuk, at two Locations, HaiSeka and ELAinELSafia for two successive seasons (2007\08 – 2008\09). Split plot designed with three replications was used. The results showed that tillage (15cm depth) and chicken manure(8ton/ha)treatment significantly increased the plant height(cm), 100-seed weight, panicle weight and grain yield (ton/ha) as compared with other treatments in two locations at all seasons. The interaction effect of tillage and application of chicken manure improved all growth and yield parameters particularly at 15cm depth and 8 ton/ha, and the deviations from the control were found to statistically significant at (p≤0.01).
