Altura

Altura sorghum is a high-yielding variety adapted for cultivation in various climatic conditions of Ukraine. This variety is characterized by high yield and resistance to adverse environmental factors such as drought, cold, diseases, and pests. Thanks to these qualities, Altura is suitable for grain production, as well as for use as a forage crop, and for the production of biofuel and ethanol.

Altura sorghum seeds have low tannin content, which improves grain quality and makes it more attractive for forage purposes. Plants reach a height of 110 to 125 cm, exhibit high resistance to lodging and diseases, including common diseases such as anthracnose, charcoal rot, and bacterial blight. Early flowering and rapid growth allow sorghum to be effectively utilized in crop rotations, and also ensure a stable yield even under conditions of insufficient moisture.

For optimal cultivation, it is recommended to consider the moisture zone when selecting planting density: from 130 to 230 thousand plants per hectare depending on soil moisture level. The variety requires minimal care and is well adapted to late spring conditions, making it an accessible and cost-effective choice for farmers seeking high-quality and stable sorghum yields.
