Have access to some acreage that the owner would like to see planted in something plus he would like to see some some young folks come around. Last week I reached out to the CORN MAZE folks and seriously thinking of this. Feed corn is to spendy so I was thinking of sorgham but to me this is basically Johnson Grass. I am thinking of growing something like this that can then be sold as standing silage or do the chopping myself and selling silage to local cattlemen. What are your experiences with sorghum?

Alternatives welcome.
