Description

ADV S6525 is an all-around elite hybrid. Place this hybrid in high-production environments. The photoperiod sensitive maturity allows for excellent multi-cut management without the risk of having grain production. In systems that focus on single-cut management, this product is an excellent tonnage producer and can provide some flexibility in harvest timing. Areas with previous SCA pressure will benefit from elite tolerance levels.

Harvest Information:

• Harvest schedules vary on the basis planting date, geographic location and weather.
• For the best quality and yield under a multicut program, harvest at 40 days or 40” of growth, whichever comes first.
• Protein will decline as harvest is delayed. Energy will  increase upon heading due to continued sugar formation in the sorghum stalks and leaves, and carbohydrate  deposition in the developing grain. 
• Careful attention should be paid to the cutting height. For regrowth, two nodes or 6” of stubble is optimal. Sharp blades provide for a clean cut and enhance regrowth.
• Sorghum species dry slowly because of their drought  tolerance. One method of managing dry-down in silage is to swath the crop, allow it to wilt to the desired moisture  level, and then pick up the windrows with a silage chopper.
