Summer Annuals
Summer annuals can be an important part of any forage system. They can be used for hay, silage, haylage, or grazing. If you want to "drought proof" your operation, summer annuals are an excellent option because most of them require 1/3 the water of a corn crop. During complete pasture renovations they can be used to supply fast, palatable forage while helping to smother the old grass stand. We have Ruby Sweet a BMR Forage Sorghum, Cattleman Plus a BMR Sorghum Sundangrass. Our Haymaker is a small seeded Sorghum Sudangrass that is an excellent choice if your goal is hay production. Pearl Millet (PP102), Japanese millet, German millet, Teff grass, and the Brassica family each give you the ability to produce the forage that will fill your needs. Our forage sorghums and sorghum sudans are available with seed treatment or, if you are an organic producer, without. Please use Caution when growning summer annuals as certain poisonings can accur.
