Sweet Sorghum planting Technology: what is Sweet Sorghum? There are some differences between sweet sorghum and sorghum.

Do you know sweet sorghum? Why is sweet sorghum called sweet sorghum? What's the difference between it and sorghum? let's take a look.

Sweet sorghum is a variety of seed sorghum, which can produce 5000-6000 kg seeds per hectare, but the seeds are smaller, with a thousand-grain weight of about 18-22 g. The difference is that its plant is tall, the biological yield is extremely high, and the stem is rich in sugar. So it is called sweet sorghum.

The advantages of sweet sorghum in cultivation are as follows:

1. It is easy to cultivate and can be propagated by seeds or cultivated by persistent roots.

two。 It is suitable for spring cultivation, and persistent root cultivation can be considered after harvest.

3. The water demand is low, about more than 400mm, and proper irrigation can increase the yield.

4. The growing period is short, it can be harvested within four months, and the yield per unit time is high, which is suitable for the existing cultivation system.

5. Suitable for mechanical sowing, management and harvesting

6. Even if it is broken or toppled by a typhoon, the plant will gradually correct itself and have a harvestable yield, and its adaptability is higher than that of other dry crops.

The disadvantages are: 1. Weed management is needed at the initial stage after sowing; 2. The volume of the product is large, and the storage and production process needs more space.
