Versatile Sorghum for Intensive Farming

«Tomahawk» by Nuseed Europe is a medium-early sorghum hybrid that addresses farm needs across three key areas: grain, silage, and hay. With a growing season of 80–90 days, the crop demonstrates excellent plasticity, which is vital for regions with unpredictable weather conditions.

Agronomic Advantages

The key feature of this hybrid is its compact structure. The plants reach a height of 90–100 cm, simplifying harvest and significantly reducing lodging risks during strong winds. The white grain offers high nutritional value: protein content ranges from 10 to 11%, while starch content reaches 70–80%, making it a valuable component for livestock feed.

Protection and Resilience

Nuseed Europe’s breeding program has prioritized a strong phytosanitary profile. «Tomahawk» effectively resists a complex of diseases, including fusarium, alternaria, helminthosporium, and various rots. Its resistance to seed mold allows for earlier planting in soil that has not fully warmed up, providing a significant advantage during the spring season.

• Target audience: Farms focused on diverse end-uses for their crops.
• Strengths: High adaptability, pathogen resistance, and excellent grain quality.
• Weaknesses: Requires strict harvest timing to maintain maximum nutritional density in green mass.

This hybrid is an optimal choice for growers seeking a balance between high productivity and biological safety.
