Summer Select Perform Pearl Millet is an improved variety designed for cattle forage and hay production in warm seasons. This versatile hybrid excels in silage, grazing, and dry hay, featuring excellent seeding vigor and medium maturity. It offers quicker regrowth than sorghum x sudangrass, improved standability due to its shorter stature, and poses no risks of prussic acid or sugarcane concerns.
