Its disease-resistant qualities make it a valuable pasture or hay crop. Stalks are taller, 
heavier and produce a finer and more palatable feed for livestock because of the sweet and 
juicy stalklike Sorghums. Sweet Sudan is the best emergency pasture for mid and late 
summer grazing. Good results are obtained when seeded in late May (if weather is 
favorable) or early June, and can also be sown during July at the rate of 20 to 30 
pounds per acre. Produces abundant material for grazing in about six weeks. Plants 
stool out much heavier, are more leafy, and produce richer yields of forage than 
common Sudan.
