POWER-STARCH-MIX

PDF DATASHEET

Profile

Sorghum bicolor / DUAL-type

Two starch-rich dual sorghum types are combined in this mixture, being suitable for the feeding of cattle and dairy cattle (starch content up to 30 %).

Early maturing, grain-focused DUAL sorghum types with heights of 1.80 to 2.50 m have been developed by DSV.

Due to their high fodder value, the combination of several DUAL-hybrids is attractive for cow feeding. 
The mixture is a great supplement or substitute for maize silage due to its high dry matter yield and high starch content.

 

  • Efficient water and nutrient absorbtion
  • High starch content
  • Good forage quality
  • Drought tolerance
  • Very early maturing
  • Medium tall plant
