A field experiment was conducted during (2009/2010) season in Demonstration Farm of the Faculty of Agricultural Studies, Sudan University of Science and Technology at Shambat, Sudan. The objective was to study the effect of fertilizers (urea, farmyard and chicken manure) on nutritive value of Rhodes grass. The fertilizer treatments used in this study were urea [U (100KgN/ha)], farmyard manure [FYM (5ton/ha)], chicken manure [CHM (3ton/ha)], combinations between them (U+FYM, U+CHM, FYM+CHM, and U+FTM+CHM) with 8 cuts (Two monthes firstly and monthly after that to 8th cut). The experiment was arranged in Randomized Complete Block Design (RCBD) with three replicates. The results revealed that all proximate analysis parameters were not significantly affected by fertilizers.
