Sudan and Johnson grasses weed pest risk in Australia
Australian crop notes describe Sudan grass and Johnson grass as emerging weeds that can cross with cultivated sorghums when planted nearby. They are not true grain crops, grow rapidly in wet summers, and may deliver high yields with low moisture. Trials suggest sowing densities of 3 to 5 kilograms per acre, row spacings around 3 feet, and monitoring for eradication in mixed farms, with limited long term data on best control methods. Some reports note stock tolerance and potential forage value, but emphasis remains on weed management and regional adaptability.
