Incorporating the brown mid-rib (BMR) trait, Graze maize provides a higher digestible forage option due to its lower lignin levels in better growing environments. Unlike the forage sorghums, BMR Graze maize does not have a risk of prussic acid poisoning and therefore provides a valuable alternative in suitable environments. BMR Graze Maize also allows for a early plant option due to corn’s higher vigour at colder temperatures compared to sorghum. BMR Graze Maize is however a single feed/cut option and is suited to direct grazing, green chopper and silage. Being a BMR corn it does not handle hot and dry conditions, if moisture is limiting, planting time should be thought through to avoid these conditions. Please call for further discussion on planting times.
