The benefits in detail
-
PIPER enables forage to be produced from the start of summer, even in dry conditions:
- The Sudan-grass type produces biomass early.
- What's more, the PIPER variety has good tolerance of low temperatures and a low hydrocyanic acid content compared with other types of sorghum, enabling it to be used at a young stage (50-60 cm), even for grazing.
PIPER also offers flexibility in the use of the fodder produced:
- Its high tillering capacity, fine stems and numerous leaves guarantee good regrowth and constant production between cuts.
- It can be used for both mowing (green feeding, wrapping, silage) and grazing.
