New Sorghum Sudangrass Variety Performing Well in Tough Conditions

SS 711 BMR BD

We just received this report from Southwest Missouri from one of our dealers. Our brand new product, SS 711 BMR BD, is performing exceptionally well in not-so-ideal circumstances. After receiving no rain for 45 days and surviving through 100 degree temperatures, the field finally received two substantial rains. The above and below pictures show what things look like now.

SS 711 BMR BD is a brachytic dwarf variety that produces shortened internodes, which in turn produces a high leaf-to-stem ratio. SS 711 BMR BD has the yield potential of 5-7 tons per acre in a three cut system.

  • Brachytic dwarf BMR-6, dry stalk sorghum-sudangrass

  • Shortened internodes that provide an increased leaf-to-stem ratio
