An independent soil test is advised before sowing. Avoid grazing or cutting sorghum below 15cm plant height. First grazing or cutting should be conducted at approximately 1 metre to increase plant productivity. Be aware of the risk of prussic acid (HCN) poisoning with forage sorghum's. Risk is greatest when crops are < 60 cm high or are moisture stressed or frosted.
