Different plant density and agroecological conditions per year was affected on forage yield and quality of Sudan grass. In two years of investigation the highest yield has obtained with 30 kg/ha sowing rate (53.0 t/ha fresh forage and 15.96 t/ha dry matter), and the lowest with 60 kg/ha sowing rate (43.1 t/ha fresh forage and 12.93 t/ha dry matter). Fresh forage yield in 2002 was 54.9 t/ha, and dry matter yield was 16.65 t/ha. In 2003 fresh forage yield was 38.8 t/ha, and dry matter yield was 11.74 t/ha. Low sowing rate has affected crude protein content, crude fibre content, fat content and ash. High sowing rate has affected N-free extract content.
