Give your wildlife another option! Real World’s Wildlife Grain Sorghum Blend is a great fall and winter food source for deer, upland game birds and migratory birds. The plants grow 4-5 feet tall making it a good cover for wildlife. This mix is a blend of white and red sorghum.
Real World tested various grain sorghum varieties and developed a blend of two specific varieties that showed the most promise in our test plots. One huge advantage that we have seen is that young grain sorghum plants do not get browsed like corn and soybeans often do. This allows a land manager another grain option to provide for the wildlife on his property. Grain sorghum also does better in a drier environment than corn or soybeans and can be planted later in the year.
Real World’s Wildlife Grain Sorghum Blend is treated with a seed safener to allow for more herbicide options. We recommend a pre-emergent application of atrazine or S-metolachlor herbicides. Always follow herbicide label instructions.
