Forage Sorghum

SSA 171 BMR6 DS is a brown midrib, male sterile hybrid forage sorghum that reaches harvest maturity approximately 75 days from planting. Because the lignin content of the stalk has been dramatically reduced, digestibility improves by 35%over conventional forage sorghums. SSA 171 BMR6 DS forage sorghum, with this improvement in digestibility and palatability, can equal the milk production of rations of corn. Plant at the recommended rates for your area and harvest timely for optimum yield and quality. The water requirement for SSA 171 BMR6 DS is 1/3 less than would be required to produce an equivalent amount of corn. Because SSA 171 BMR6 DS is a male sterile hybrid, volunteer growth is not an issue provided there is adequate isolation from pollen fertile sorghums.

SSA 181 BMR6 DS (Forage Sorghum) is a brown midrib, male sterile hybrid forage sorghum. Because the lignin content of the stalk has been dramatically reduced, digestibility improves by 35% over conventional forage sorghums. SSA 181 BMR6 DS forage sorghum, with this improvement in digestibility and palatability, can equal the milk production of corn. Plant at the recommended rates for your area and harvest timely for optimum yield and quality. The water requirement for SSA 181 BMR6 DS is 1/3 less than would be required to produce an equivalent amount of corn. Because SSA 181 BMR6 DS is a male sterile hybrid, volunteer growth is not an issue provided there is adequate isolation from pollen fertile sorghums.

SSA 191 BMR6 BD is a brachytic dwarf, brown midrib, grain producing hybrid forage sorghum. Because the lignin content of the stalk has been dramatically reduced, IVDMD is 40% greater than conventional forage sorghums. SSA 191 BMR6 BD with this improvement in digestibility and palatability, can equal the milk production of corn with a water requirement 1/3 less than would be required to produce an equivalent amount of corn. Because SSA 191 BMR6 BD is a grain producing hybrid, energy will increase as carbohydrates form in the grain head. Plant at the recommended rates for your area and harvest timely for optimum yield and quality.

SSA Cow Vittles II is a conventional hybrid forage sorghum with high yield potential. A dense lush leaftype with a large grain head. Cow Vittles II sets the standard for forage sorghums. Generally used South of I80.
Seed at 7-11 lbs. per acre.
