[Sowing Period]
May - August
Must be sown when the average temperature is 15°C or higher.

[Sowing Method]
Broadcast or row sowing (60cm between rows). After sowing, cover with about 3cm of soil to promote germination.

[Features]
Fast-growing variety with fine stems and leaves that decompose easily.
The fibers are soft, making it easy to incorporate into the soil even while standing, using a tiller.
Plant height is 200cm - 280cm.
High heat tolerance, prefers high temperatures.
Suitable for spring to summer sowing.
Cannot overwinter from autumn sowing.
Characterized by higher organic matter production compared to other green manures.

[Benefits]
? Fast growth and tall stature - Depending on the variety, plant height can exceed 2m after 70 days of sowing.

? Attracts natural enemies of pests - The above-ground parts of sorghum attract natural enemies of pests, functioning as a banker crop to suppress pests.

? Effective as a windbreak - Due to its tall stature, it is effective as a windbreak.

? Beneficial for soil improvement - High nitrogen absorption makes it ideal for removing excess fertilizer components from the soil. Additionally, its abundant roots soften the soil and improve drainage.

? Improves continuous cropping disorder - Balances soil conditions and can improve continuous cropping disorder.

[Incorporation Timing]
50-60 days after sowing, when plant height is approximately 200cm. If incorporation is delayed, decomposition becomes difficult.

[Incorporation Method]
For home gardens, cut with a sickle into lengths of about 30cm and incorporate.
For tall sorghum, incorporation after shredding with a flail mower or similar equipment is recommended.
Additionally, to promote decomposition of the green manure, rotary cultivation is performed about twice after incorporation.

[Decomposition Period]
Sow or transplant the main crop 3-4 weeks or more after incorporation.
