Planting kaffir and milo in western Oklahoma requires soil readiness and careful timing. Heavy clay soils should be plowed in fall or spring, harrowed after moisture is right, and kept surface cloddy to prevent blowing and aid moisture. Light soils should be listed in fall to prevent wind erosion. Rows are set at right angles to prevailing winds, with periodic harrowing to suppress weeds. Planting occurs after warming soil, with a planter drill using specific plate holes for two seeds per drop, spacing twelve to twenty four inches between hills. Rows are three feet apart, with about 800 grains of milo per ounce of seed and a pound per acre under standard spacing. If moisture is scarce, thin planting improves yield. if moisture is abundant, some suckers may form to boost heads. The notes apply to kaffir and milo grain production per the State Board of Agriculture bulletin.
