The results showed that the treatment of bokashi grass fertilizer and NPK did not affect plant height, stem diameter, number of fruits per plant, fruit weight per plant. Single treatment of bokashi grass fertilizer affected plant height, stem diameter, number of fruits per plant, fruit weight per plant. Efficient treatment to obtain the sweetness level of sorghum stems is the treatment of bokashi grass fertilizer at a dose of 15 tons/ha.
