Sudan grass trials at Burrawang Estate show high yields
Experimental notes at Burrawang detail Sudan grass on four acres sown January with irrigation. First cut March produced 5 to 7 foot stubble, second cut May four feet, ensilage in June. Rainfall January to April totals 270 points, 185 in January. Lambing feed demand and hay yields cited. Conclusions favor October or November planting for bigger returns and a third crop, with irrigation or good rainfall critical for best results. Messrs Cunningham Bros. note Gilgandan Farm reports good yields for Vig without irrigation under low rainfall.
