Conteúdo: 	Gahi millet, Tift sudangrass, and sudax 11, a sorghamsudan hybrid, were grown on Cecil
sandy loam for 3 yeras and were harvested at intervals of 2, 3, 4, and 5 weeks at cutting
heights of 1/3, 1/2, 3/4, and 7/8, of the available forage. Growth responses are summari-
zed as follows:
1. Annual dry matter yields averaged 8446, 2399, and 6448 pounds for 1961, 1962, and
1963, respectively.
2. Harvesting at 5-weeks intervals produced 46% more forage than harvesting at 2-weeks 
intervals.
3. Harvesting 7/8 of the forage increased production 18% as compared to harvesting the
top 1/3.
4. Gahi millet and sudax were similar in production whiles. Tif sudangrass produced signi-
ficantly less forage.
5. Gahi millet supplied more forage in the fall and more during the dry 1962 season than 
the other varieties.
