Producing Sweet Sorghum and Syrup DVD - Order this University of Kentucky
produced DVD which reviews all aspects of producing a sweet
sorghum crop. It includes tips on variety selection, planting site
requirements, transplants vs seeding, fertilization, harvesting
techniques, and syrup processing alternatives.
The American Cane Mill, A History
of
the Machinery, the Manufacturers, Sugarcane and Sorghum by Don Howard
Dean. Will be available at Annual
Meeting and then we will make it available afterward to all. Now available from Mrs. Carol Dean, 904
Eldorado Dr.,
Dothan, AL 36303. Send her a check for $50.
Suckering of Sweet Sorghum Plants - I have had several calls
and/or email messages asking: "Why is my sweet sorghum suckering so
badly?" I looked at our plots and they are all suckering badly. I
think it has to do with the wet, hot weather this year, but I don't feel
like it will hurt your crop and probably will produce more juice than
normal.
