Sudan Grass Promises Summer Pasture Boost for Iowa Farms
Iowa extension agronomist Harvey Thompson says Sudan grass seeded in early June provides a rapid grazing option, with 5 to 6 weeks to readiness and 18 inches height by mid-July. Seeding at 20 pounds per acre in a prepared seedbed yields best results, though prussic acid poses a poisoning risk if grazed too early or stressed. Piper, a new variety, offers lower prussic acid, higher yield, and better disease resistance. seed is available in Iowa this year.
