A Most Profitable Crop 
This valuable, quick growing, heavy producing grass 
should be grown on every farm. Produces enormous hay 
crops. Makes fine pasture during hot summer months, If 
you are needing a big hay or pasture crop this year be 
sure to sow Sudan. It is a sure crop and easy to grow. 
Description 
Sudan belongs to the cane family but is finer stemmed 
and a free stooler. Grows 4 to 7 feet high and yields 4 to 
10 tons of cured hay per acre. Livestock is very fond of 
Sudan. It has good feeding value. First hay crop can be 
cut in about 60 days after seeding and second and third 
crops 30 to 40 days apart. 
Sudan is one of the best drought resisters known and 
supplies an abundance of fine pasture or hay during the hot 
dry months of the summer when feed is often scarce. 
That’s why every farm should have some of it. It has 
been a life saver to thousands during the past few years. 
How to Handle 
Sudan is a warm weather crop. Do not sow until corn 
planting time or after. Prepare a good seed bed as you 
would for corn. Drill in close rows or broadcast. Cover 
seed about an inch deep. Sow 20 to 25 lbs. per acre. You 
can begin pasturing when 6 to 8 inches high. Cut for hay 
when in bloom, although you can cut earlier or later with- 
out damage or loss.
