It thrives on good soil, especially sand, and on new land. Sow half a bushel per acre for hay and a peck for seed. Millet hay is compact and should be fed with other fodder, cut before seed ripens. German millet is best when conditions allow full season growth. use common millet for late sowing or poor soil. Hungarian grass can yield excellent fodder on fertile moist soils.
