Sudan grass, the new annual hay
grass introduced from Sudan in 1909,
was so enthusiastically received by
the farmers in the semlarid portion
of the United States that in 1913 the
seed which was available only in lim
ited quantities sold readily at $1 per
pound and even more. These unusual
prices gave Sudan grass seed produc
tion a great impetus, so that in 1914
seed was much more abundant, the
crop being roughly estimated at from
five to six million pounds. Three or
four million pounds of this amount
were produced in western Texas,
where for a time an attempt was
made to maintain the price at $1 per
pound. In other localities, however,
the seed was offered at 25 to 30 cents
per pound, and as a result of this a
great deal of the Texas seed of-the
1914 crop .remained unsold in 1915.
This surplus seed carried over from
1914, together with that from the
1915 crop, has fully supplied the de
mand, and the price of seed has drop
ped to 5 cents or less a pound whole
sale, and from 7 to 10 cents a pound
retail

seed can be profitably grown for 5
cents per pound, since yields of 500
pounds per acre are quite common,
and l,000pounds per acre very often
are obtained under favorable condi
tions without irrigation. With irri
gation the yields may reach 2,000
pounds per acre. Sudan grass is us
ually grown in cultivated rows when
a seed crop is desired. Planted in
this way it Is readily harvested with
a row binder, and after curing well In
the field it can be thrashed with an
ordinary grain separator. Since no
especial machinery is required to
handle the seed crop, the expenses
are reduced to a minimum, and there
remains no reason why' the seed
should not be reasonably cheap and
abundant.
The most dangerous weed pest of
Sudan grass fields is Johnson grass.
This grass is common in the South
and not infrequently occurs in fields
of Sudan gras3. The seds of John
son grass resemble Sudan grass so
closely that only the very closest ex
amination will reveal their presence,
ence.
An admixture of Johnson grass
does not injure the quality of the
Sudan grass hay crop, but it is a mat
ter of decided importance when it
comes to the production of seed for
market purposes. Those who have
land in the South free from Johnson
grass consider it a decided injustice
to be sold Sudan grass seed contain
ing an admixture of Johnson grass.
A method has besn discovered where
by it is possible to identify, with
reasonable certainty, the seed of
Johnson grass when it is mixed with
that of Sudan grass. This method cf
aeed examination, however,, can net
bo considered as an unfailing protec
tion against infestation .of a farmer's
"elds with Johnson grass. A saft;r
plan is for the southern farmer to
jrow his own seed where possible or
purchase seed that has been grown
.lorth of the Johnson grass area, that
3,. north of a line where Johnson
jvass persists in the soil as a peren nial.
In the region where winter
freezes are severe enough to kill the
underground rootstocks very litth?
Johnson grass is found. The only
vay seed of it can occur in Sudan
grass seed, therefore, is through will
ful mixing of the seed, but as John
son grass seed can not be grown so
cheaply as Sudan grass seed there is
now no object in such adulteration.
Where reasonable care is used by the
ed grower to obtain pure seed with
which to plant his fields in the North
there then remains little chance of an
admixture with seed of Johnson
srass. f
Many of the farmers in the South
will be forced to buy their seed, be
cause the presence of the sorghum
midge in humid parts of the Southern
States interferes seriously with seed
production. Th midge is most abun
dant close to the Gulf of Mexico, and
there -Its attacks result in almost
complete sterility of the Sudan grass.
Farther north in these States, where
the midge is not so abundant nor so
uniformly present throughout the
summer, a partial crop of seed often
can be obtained, and in some cases a
full crop of seed will set during a
period when the midge is not present.
In the dry atmosphere farther west
the midge is not troublesome, and In
Arizona, New Mexico, and California
large yields of seed can be obtained
under irrigation. ! -
Sudan grass deserves a much wid
er use as a hay crop throughout the
Southern States and in the irrigated
sections of the Southwest, and this
continued and enlarged use for hay
purposes should provide a steady de
mand for good pure seed. Informa
tion regarding present sources of
seed will be furnished by the depart
ment to those who wish to buy seed.
More extended information regarding
the culture of this grass is contained
in Farmers' Bulletin 605, which is
sent free on application to the Divis
ion of Publications, Department of
Agriculture.
