There is considerably more interest in Grain Sorghum or milo production in Mississippi this year.  Since Mississippi State University has not conducted Grain Sorghum Hybrid Trials the last several years, I suggest reviewing grain sorghum performance data from the University of Arkansas (http://www.arkansasvarietytesting.com/) and the LSU AgCenter Hybrid Trials(http://www.lsuagcenter.com/en/crops_livestock/crops/Sorghum/Variety+Trials++Recommendations/).  

Those grain sorghum hybrids yielding consistently well above the mean in dryland trials generally corresponding with Mississippi grain sorghum production areas include:

  • DEKALB DKS53-67

  • Pioneer 84G62

  • Pioneer 84P80

  • DEKALB DKS49-45

  • Dyna Gro 772B

  • Terral TV96H81
