Virgil Youth Digs Sorghum Trials In South Dakota
Virgil area youth Joe Curtis conducts an ambitious sorghum test program near Virgil along with his father and brother. He plans about 20 varieties for a 1940 plot, building on a first year showing Sooner mile and early kale as top performers, with sedan kafir and Colby mile also promising. Curtis aims to breed an early high-yield sorghum with a sweet stalk and kernels that thresh clean.
