Forage Sorghum
More Tonnage Potential. Better Bottom-Line Potential.
All the forage options out there can make your hybrid decisions harder than they should be. But with expertise from the WinField United team, you can easily find the right forage sorghum seed and genetics for your fields. We’ll deliver the best nutrition and high sorghum plant digestibility insights to help optimize tonnage and quality from planting to harvest.
SELECT THE RIGHT FORAGE TYPE
Forage Sorghum (Single-cut Silage)
Tall plant that has a sweet stalk and small grain head with limited regrowth potential.
Sorghum X Sudan (Multi-cut or Grazing)
Strong tillering and regrowth ability, which is ideal for multiple harvests with increased tonnage potential.
Sudan (Multi-cut or Grazing)
Shorter stature with fine stalks; more leaves than a sorghum x sudan. Multiple tillering ability and excellent regrowth.
Pearl Millet (Multi-cut or Grazing)
Brachytic plant stature with finer stalks and prolific tillering.
FERTILITY
Sorghums require 1 to 1.25 units of nitrogen per growing day. Apply at a 5:1 ratio of nitrogen to sulfur to help the plant convert nitrogen to protein.
Stressed plants will not convert nitrate into usable protein, resulting in high concentrations of nitrates in the plant. High nitrates can be toxic if fed to cattle.
