The present study was conducted to evaluate and identify the promising varieties of sorghum (Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench) superior in quality, resistance to insect-pests and fodder yield. The experiment was carried out in a randomized block design with three replications of twenty varieties of sorghum. The observations recorded include morphological characters, tillering, regeneration, green and dry fodder yield, HCN, IVDMD %, crude protein, insect-pests and foliar disease. The genotypes SPV 2444 (GFY: 395.5 and DFY: 85.0 q/ha) and SPV 2454 (GFY: 374.0 and DFY: 122.0 q/ha) were superior in yield. Similarly, the per day productivity for green and dry fodder yield followed the same trend. These genotypes also had better morphological traits as compared to others.SPH 1858 had highest leaf breadth (8.5 cm) followed by SPV 2448 (7.9 cm). Minimum HCN content was found in SPV 2455 (23μg/g) followed by SPV 2449 (64μg/g). Crude protein was found highest in SPV 2446 (10.94 %) followed by SPV 2447 (10.72 %). IVDMD was found maximum in SPV 2448 (50.80 %).followed by SPV 2450 (50.40 %)
