Will add to what others said it was a cheap crop to grow many tons of silage I think we planted it with corn an used about a bag of seed to 10 acres of 38inch rows.This was also about 30 yrs ago Stuff was so thick mice had to go to end of field to get around!!!! We planted Atlas i think.Neighbor planted some that i could not reach top standing on tractor rear wheels.There are also shorter varities avaible that get really big grain heads on them an are combined.It is a plant that is drought resistant an does not not need to be planted till soil is about 65 degrees. It is poinsous when frozen !!!!!! Should be looked into as a crop for ethanol.
