Sorghum Sudangrass, BMR

Our Honey Sweet Hybrid BMR Sorghum-sudangrass is a modified sorghum/sudangrass which offers flexibility to producers for direct pasture or hay production. Performance in fields has shown from 75 to 100% greater daily weight gains over conventional sorghum/sudangrass hybrids. Its high level of palatability allows the hybrid to fit well into cell-grazing systems. This hybrid has a demonstrated ability to increase both meat and milk production dramatically, therefore producing greater profits per acre of pasture.
