Sorghum Suggested
For Sugar Shortage
Fare to face with a tugir short
age, North Carolina farm families
would be wise to plant a sorghum
(patch this year, advises E. C. Blair,
(extension agronomist of N. C. State
(College.
Home needs should be supplied
| first, he said, but there may be some
j farmers who would like to derive
! cash money from the sale of their
(extra syrup.
Blair explained that the average
yield in North Carolina is 70 gal
lons per acre. However, under good
management, farmers have found it
easy to secure lOu gallons, and yiehfc
of more than 400 gallons are on rec
ord
In general, the agronomist pointed
out, sorghum does well on any well
drained soil that is suitable for corn.
Sandy loams and clay loams of med
ium to high fertility give the high
est yields. Dark, heavy soils produde
darker syrup than light colored
randy soils.
Sorghum has shallow roots which
draw rather heavily on the top four
or five inches of soil. For this reason,
it is advisable to apply stable manure
or to grow a winter legume after the
crop
Good fertilizers for sorghum are:
Coastal Plain, 400 pounds of a 4-8-6
per acre; Piedmont, 400 pounds of 1
4-10-4 per acre. Then apply 100
pounds of nitrate of soda or an equiv
alent amount of readily available ni
trogen from other sources when the
erpp is two feet high.
Varieties vary in the time requir
d for maturity. Recommended var
ieties for this section are; Sugar
Drip. Orange. Honey.
Planting should begin about May
1st

plating having any moving of any
