Overview
About this product
An early sorghum with white grain, a dense panicle and a short plant. The maker describes it as stable under stress, with high nicosulfuron tolerance, resistant to drought, fusarium and lodging, and with a high compensatory capacity.
The grain suits feed, food and bioenergy. The recommended density is 160–200 thousand seeds/ha under insufficient moisture, 200–240 thousand under sufficient moisture and 240–280 thousand under irrigation.
Sowing depth is 2–4 cm, sowing temperature above 10–12 °C. The sorghum is recommended for the Steppe and Forest-Steppe.
