☀️ Drought-Tolerant Energy: Grain Sorghum (Milo) for Livestock Excellence

Fuel your operation with Grain Sorghum (Milo), the resilient cereal crop and cost-effective alternative to corn. Sorghum is highly versatile, providing a dense, reliable energy source for a wide range of livestock, particularly where water resources are limited.

✨ Key Benefits

• High Energy Density: Modern, low-tannin sorghum varieties contain $98\%$ to $99\%$ the energy value of corn, making it a near-equivalent energy source for high-performance diets.
• Superior Protein: Offers a higher crude protein content than corn and a more favorable profile of essential amino acids (like threonine and tryptophan), allowing for reduced reliance on costly protein supplements.
• Improved Carcass Fat Quality (Swine): Sorghum's unique fatty acid profile results in firmer, higher-quality pork fat with a lower iodine value, which is highly desirable for bacon and fresh pork markets.
• Versatile Feed Inclusion: Can completely replace corn, barley, or wheat as the primary energy source in diets for swine, poultry, and beef cattle when properly processed.
• Sustainable & Resource-Smart: As a drought-tolerant crop, sorghum requires significantly less water and fewer inputs than corn, making it an environmentally and economically smart choice.

🐄 Applications & Processing Requirements

While sorghum's nutritional value is excellent, proper preparation is key to unlocking its full potential, particularly for monogastrics:

Note on Tannins: Our modern U.S.-grown Sorghum (Milo) is typically composed of low-tannin varieties, which eliminates the palatability and anti-nutritional issues historically associated with older, high-tannin sorghum.

Invest in a smart, reliable grain that delivers maximum performance. Choose Sorghum (Milo) for a high-energy, protein-rich, and sustainable feed solution.
