Sudan Grass prospects for New South Wales in 1919
Sudan Grass adapts to almost all soils below 3000 feet elevation in New South Wales and performs well on granite, alluvial, and basaltic soils. Planting should begin in spring with September sowing in the north and October elsewhere. Drill sowing yields best establishment, with 1 foot 9 inches row spacing on slopes. Seed rates vary by method and terrain, moisture conservation is crucial. It serves as hay, pasture, or ensilage with high palatability and nutritive value, supporting stock: sheep and dairy cattle. Potentially yields up to five months of grazing per season on coast under irrigation and favorable slopes.
