Sordan Headless

Forage Sorghum x Sudan

Sordan Headless is a photoperiod sensitive sorghum x sudangrass hybrid that produces excellent summer forage yields and has a wide harvest window. It is well suited for use as emergency feed. Sordan Headless can expand the window for usage because it will not head under most conditions. It continues to grow and maintain its nutrient value in the leaves and stem until it is chopped or grazed, thus extending the time period for grazing and chopping. This hybrid is best used for hay, haylage, and greenchop. Other uses include grazing and ground cover. Sordan Headless has a good leaf-to-stem ratio that helps provide good quality with proper management.
