EARLY MATURITY FORAGE SORGHUM SEED
AF7102 is an early BMR-6 forage sorghum seed with great standability. Northern forage sorghum producers are able to reach high yield potential with tremendous forage quality of a BMR-6 without the issues of lodging. This forage sorghum hybrid works best in areas north of I-70 where humidity and the shorter growing season tend to be a challenge. AF7102 can be used in southern forage sorghum-producing states for late planting or early harvest situations. The tillering capabilities of this hybrid are unsurpassed, allowing for increased yields and ground cover.
Relative Maturity: Early
To Soft Dough Stage: 85-89 Days
Midrib: BMR-6
Seeds/Lb (1,000): 17-19
