Variety traits
Sorghum x drummondii (Steud.) Millsp. & Chase
Lodging in Sudangrass is a critical trait affecting the harvest efficiency of both seed and green forage in high-yielding varieties that reach heights of 2.5–3 meters.
In the reference 25 varieties crop Sudangrass, where this is mentioned in the description.
Resistance to lodging determines the suitability of the crop for mechanized harvesting. Stem lodging complicates mowing, leads to yield losses, and reduces forage quality due to soil contamination and disrupted biomass drying processes in windrows.
Resistance assessment is conducted visually using a scoring scale or descriptive terms during seed maturity or before harvest. The trait is closely correlated with morphology: tall varieties with high yield potential often have thinner stems, which requires special attention when selecting for stalk strength.
