Overview
About this product
A silage sweet sorghum hybrid of the "sterile" type, mid-season, for conventional technology: it forms grain only in part, so, per the maker's description, the plant stays young through the whole season. It carries the BMR gene, a low-lignin trait.
It is used as livestock feed and in alternative energy, in pure and mixed stands with maize. Yield is up to 110 t/ha of green mass.
It is resistant to the maize borer. The maker scores lodging resistance and stress tolerance at 9 of 9; emergence to flowering is 85–100 days.
