High-Quality Sorghum

 Sorghum crop management begins with understanding sorghum plant growth and development. 

Water stress can significantly affect grain sorghum yield potential; the extent of yield loss depends on the growth stage at which the stress occurs. The most critical period to avoid water stress is from about one week prior to emergence of the grain head from the boot (exertion) through two weeks past flowering.

No-till cropping systems help protect fields from excessive soil erosion, reduce soil aeration from tillage, allow organic matter to accumulate by decreasing decomposition, and improve the overall health of the soil.
