Sugargraze is a new hybrid specialty forage. The multi-cut high sugar forage promises farmers a 30 per cent increase in milk output. Given it is a sorghum variant sugargaraze is drought tolerant compared to other fodder crops such as maize and napier grass. It thrives in both high and low potential areas with poor soils, where maize production is poorer. It is high yielding with an acre giving up to 40 metric tonnes, which is much more forage than other sources of fodder such as maize. Unlike maize, their lower leaves do not dry out as the plant matures, remaining green and retaining a higher crude protein content. The sugargraze has the advantage of ratooning (growing again). The second crop matures earlier but depending on the level of feed might yield slightly less than the first crop.
