In: Zagazig Journal of agricultural research 2008.v.35(1)Summary: Two field trials were carried out at Giza Experimental Station, Agricultural Research Center during the summer seasons of 2005 and 2006. Fourteen sweet sorghum varieties were evaluated for their yielding ability, juice quality and processing parameters under two sowing dates Le. May 5th and 25th Analysis of variance showed:Most yielding traits, ,juice quality and processing parameters acted better in the earl)' planting date (May 5) than in the late one (May 25). Great variation in most studied traits have been detected among the fourteen sweet sorghum varieties under investigation. Not all sweet sorghum varieties perform good for stalk, syrup and alcohol production, quality and processing parameters in the first planting date, but some of them were suitable for the second planting date. Results also cleared that Mn3306. Planter, Rex. Rio, SS405 and Tracy varieties which distinguished with high potential ability on producing syrup and ethanol are recommended for both syrup and/ or ethanol production.
