Management Considerations
- Warm seasons don’t do well when seeded early with low soil temperatures and a frost risk. A minimum soil temperature of 15°C is recommended at time of seeding.
- It is best to wait to graze until the sorghum-sudangrass is at least 18″–20″ tall to start grazing to avoid any prussic acid issues
- Avoid grazing for 5-7 days following a killing frost for nitrate considerations. The entire mix is then safe to graze for the remainder of the fall and winter.
- The hairy vetch may see some winter survivability pending circumstance.
