All ratings are general. Different pathotypes, races, and biotypes of diseases and insects can cause ratings to change.
All ratings are based on Warner field screenings and university screenings.
LDP Payment: Difference between the posted county price and the county loan rate.
HR = High Resistance, HT = Highly Tolerant, T = Tolerant, MT = Moderately Tolerant, S = Susceptible, 1 = Poor, 10 = Excellent
Management Notes:
2-Way SRS has an outstanding silage yield potential. This dual-purpose forage sorghum responds well to soil moisture and fertility
to produce high yielding, high quality feed. 2-Way SRS can be planted at high plant populations to make a good single cutting hay
or late summer/fall graze out crop. Smaller planting seed size allows for more planted acres per bag.
