Yield of Sudangrass

Sorghum x drummondii (Steud.) Millsp. & Chase

The yield of Sudangrass is assessed based on the above-ground biomass output per unit area. This indicator depends on the regrowth intensity, tillering density, and the crop's responsiveness to nitrogen fertilizers.

In the reference 36 varieties crop Sudangrass, where this is mentioned in the description.

When agricultural technologies are followed, the green mass yield of Sudangrass averages 20–40 t/ha, varying from 19 to 50 t/ha depending on irrigation conditions and stubble cropping. Hay yields reach 50–100 c/ha, and grain yields can be up to 40–45 c/ha, dropping to 10 c/ha in northern regions.

An important factor in yield formation is the crop's ability to produce multiple cuts, allowing for 2–3 harvests per season. To achieve maximum productivity while maintaining nutritional value, the optimal harvest time is considered the jointing stage or the beginning of panicle emergence, along with the application of nitrogen fertilizers, which increase mass by 24–38%.
