the mid bloom stage about 40-50 days after planting. Mature

maturity and are readily consumed by upland game birds such as
quail, turkey, pheasant, prairie chickens, and other migratory
birds including duck, geese and dove. Deer are also feeders of
this grain producing plant.

annual grass
Uses: Wild game food sorghum is an early
maturing sorghum reaching mid-bloom at about 40-50 days after emergence. It is
bird-resistant which keeps migrating flocks of blackbirds from stripping it in
late summer. A mature plant will be 26-30" tall with seed becoming marginally
palatable at maturity. As it stands in the weather, it loses tannic acid and
becomes more and more palatable through the fall. This sorghum makes excellent
seed for all game birds, including quail, turkey, pheasants, doves and ducks.
Deer will also feed heavily on the grain in fall and winter.
Best for: Deer, Turkey, Duck, Dove,
Pheasant, Rabbit, Quail
Planting Rate: 30 lbs per acre broadcast, 10 lbs per
acre if planted in 30" rows
Smaller Food Plots: 1-2 lbs. per 1000 sq. ft.
