Seed lots often contain about 14,000 to 17,000 seeds per pound, and sorghum emergence is often about 75 percent, so these planting rates will result in plant populations of 85,000 to 150,000 plants per acre.

Ethanol yield per acre was calculated both with and without storage losses, using the GREET default yields for corn grain, corn stover, and switchgrass (8.4, 4.2, and 11.21 dry Mg/ha, respectively) , and using the 2007 US national average yield for corn silage (12.6 dry Mg/ha), which was the most recent data available at the time the analyses . The studies in alfalfa fall dormancy, fall harvest, and alfalfa-grass mixturesincreased forage yield on average at least 0.3 ton/acre/yr. Ameri can Agriculturist. It doesn't look like there's any data for this area. This crop had but two irrigations through the summer -the dry eat season known here in a score of years.

It doesn't look like there's any data for this area. Professor Roberts, of the Cornell j University Experimental Station, j found the average of two years broad cast sowing of oats to be 16 bushels per acre, while equal areas drilled gave 56 bushels. "Next comes the 'Improved Orange.' It is also an early cane. reducing grain and fodder yields (Harris . In 1909 the oat crop was 1 5,39 0, 000 bushels from 300,000 acres; the acreage of wheat in 1909 was 350,000 and the production 10,764,000 bushels; the acreage of barley in 1909 was 50,000 acres, and 1,900,000 bushels were raised; the acreage of Indian corn in 1909 was 5000 acres, and 175,000 bushels were grown. In sorghum and millet fields in India, there was a 35% crops loss due to insect pests estimated at $580 million (Reddy and Zehr 2004). long and oval-shaped with serrated edges. Optimum planting rates for forage sorghum are about 8 to 12 pounds of seed per acre. Flour made from Kaffir Corn is excellent for batter cakes muffins, etc. Grain sorghum production rose to 90,000 acres, which was a marked increase from the 12,000 acres planted in 2020. The most serious drawback to this variety, is that on account of the smallness of the stalk, it is more trouble to strip the fodder off of it in j preparing it for grinding. Average yield: In the MMSU study, the average yield was 110 tons per hectare of sweet sorghum cane stalk for two cropping seasons in eight months (one main crop followed by one ratoon crop.) production is forecast at 22.5 million 480-pound bales, up 23 percent from 2018. In 1909 the oat crop was 1 5,39 0, 000 bushels from 300,000 acres; the acreage of wheat in 1909 was 350,000 and the production 10,764,000 bushels; the acreage of barley in 1909 was 50,000 acres, and 1,900,000 bushels were raised; the acreage of Indian corn in 1909 was 5000 acres, and 175,000 bushels were grown. 2.1 .

Sorghum, maize and pearl millet were grown for fodder on a sandy loam soil under four irrigation schedules (i.e. Sweet sorghum provides both a cane yield (40 and 25 tonnes per ha per harvest) and a reasonable amount of grain1 ; hence bioenergy production can be combined with food and feed production (ICRISAT, 2007) and the wastewater from the ethanol production process has been shown to be less hazardous than molasses (ICRISAT, 2007). Thus one of the primary objectives of most soybean breeding and agronomic programs is to "break the yield barrier." It should be noted that an increase in US soybean yields of just 1 bushel per acre (67.39 kg/ha) would produce an additional 70,000,000 bushels (1,905,000 tonnes) of soybeans.

Seed lots often contain about 14,000 to 17,000 seeds per pound, and sorghum emergence is often about 75 percent, so these planting rates will result in plant populations of 85,000 to 150,000 plants per acre. Leaflets are approximately 5 in. 0. 0. So that the vine grower, even in the poorest seasons, can scarcely fail of a handsome profit, while in good years . Sorghum is a highly adaptable crop that can withstand varying levels of soil fertilities, drought, and diverse temperatures while producing high yields; some hybrids have been shown to produce higher yields following periods of drought stress ( Borrell et al. 0. yielded an average of at least 250 gallons of wine per acre since 1849, which at an average price of 81 60 per gallon, would give an annual income of $400, and a yearly profit of 8300 per acre. While nitrogen-limiting situations generally reduce total oilseed CH03-P374347.indd 57 5/31/2008 5:54:35 PM 58 Nitrogen in the Environment production and, hence, oil yield per acre, there are few instances where the crop quality is actually reduced by inadequate nitrogen availability.

Ratoon is the outgrowth after the main stalk has been cut. Cropping season: one hectare planted with sweet sorghum will yield 95-125 tons after a planting season of 100-115 days, compared to sugar cane's 65-90 tons per hectare with a longer crop season of 300-330 days. rows 2,440 2,687 .

He also obtained I the largest yield with about three i bushels of seed per acre. Table 2. Ethanol yield per acre was calculated both guidelines for storage losses described by Hoglund [14], except with and without storage losses, using the GREET default for those of outdoor storage of dry biomass, for which losses yields for corn grain, corn stover, and switchgrass (8.4, 4.2, and can be considerably greater. yield per plant (Anjum et .
