Yeah sorghum sudangrass is a good feed if yer able to cut it at the leave stage. We as in me and my family know some neighbors they grow that stuff, have really good luck with it sometimes gotten a bit too tall like 6 feet on times...lol. Don't know what they use but I'll guess they communicated with people who deals / handles it in general like feed stores as in Fram stores type where they handle seed for like hay fields, pastures yards that some sort plus even some other stores as well that handles sorghum. Inerways sometimes it is better to cut it at least that stage or younger cuz if you think about it most generally cows only eats the tenderness parts of the plants..lol. Inerways good video👍❤.
Unfortunately, they will stomp Down most of it if it's tall when you put them out. Now the fun part, getting it dry enough to bale! Makes some awesome feed!!

@@AaronH42 freaking Crazy!!! We get stories about how Crazy it is!! Patrols looking for people out and about.. seems to me, if they're patrolling, they are out and about.. they should be fined as well
We mow and wrap ours every 45 days - get 3 cuttings per year. End up with 7-8 tons per acre over the 3 cuttings. If you graze, strip-graze it to minimize waste.
We cut it with a sickle bar, and raked it with a dump rake. We actually stacked it loose . They did tramp the stems into the manure. It wasn't that many years ago. We did bale alfalfa in the mid 70s. We just were stubborn.
When you mentioned the tall stubble skids I said good luck. When I bought our new Kuhn disc mower and asked for those they said “Huh? I don’t think they make em.” I had to show them the part number in the book. They acted like I was crazy for wanting to leave more grass behind when making hay.
Cut when you can ,regrowth will be great grazing,I just raised my header up and cut,,it can get to big and if it rains can’t get it,,we got 4inches the other buddy can’t even cut his,5 feet tall
That's the same type of sorghum I grew and got the best soil Improvement results. Thanks for the video I enjoyed the ride in your tractor.
Looks like a pretty good stand there & healthy looking windrows too. Thanks for the ride along & updates. Take care.
Beautiful looking crop and the views!
That looks good Brad!!!!!👍👍
Absolutely! 👍👍
Sounds like you have a great thing going there. Looks pretty good.
Nice looking stuff. Hopefully mine will turn out that good. 👍👍
Interesting

Looks awesome Brad. Quite the green thumb have lol.
30 years ago I green chopped sudex for my dairy cows for a few years. It always got ahead of me. The cows sure liked it.
Sudex looks nice! I’d agree cut and bale then regrow and graze.
Looks like lots of stuff. I'd be interested in seeing the feed test results if you do that.
G'day, nice weather here to 77 today!! although we're in state wide lockdown I got outside to mow my lawn.
Another cooler day here, 95.5°.. sounds like a radio station 🙄😵

Good looking crop in that very short season.

Can't Believe how fast that stuff grows 👍

Your tonnage is whipping mine after wheat 🙁, but I finally got a rain so the row crops are set👌. This environment is the new norm😳😢.
Some tonnage!👍
This is interesting to me since no one grows that crop around here. It looks good especially since it was planted July 3 and you are harvesting
Good looking stand cuz
we have a new holland 1421 with high stubble shoes and love it.
Dam I think I'm going to try some of that next year mixed with some peas or oats
Wet and heavy stuff, btw you missed a spot. 😆
You gonna feed awhile on that crop . Fat cows happy cows .
Will that dry down to make dry bales or will you wrap it for green feed
Probably wrap it.
Cut when you can ,regrowth will be great grazing,I just raised my header up and cut,,it can get to big and if it rains can’t get it,,we got 4inches the other buddy can’t even cut his,5 feet tall
Interesting, we’ve only ever green chopped it.
