Alta Seeds Introduced New hybrids Brachytic Forages to Expand Range of Use & Add Versatility

Alta Seeds, brand of Advanta US, recently introduced new hybrids with the unique brachytic dwarf trait that offer early maturity for greater versatility. 
 
This opens up a number of options for growers including: planting in areas with shorter growing seasons, double-cropping and as a replacement crop for failed corn.
 
The brachytic dwarf trait reduces the distance between leaves (internodes) on a sorghum plant resulting in a short, stout plant that stands well and produces yields equal to taller plants. The new, quicker-maturing brachytic forages from Alta Seeds also feature the Brown Midrib 6 trait (BMR-6) for nutritional analysis equal to or greater than corn silage.
 
Capitalizing on the 40-year germplasm base built by the legacy seed companies of Advanta US, senior sorghum breeder Vicente Trucillo and his breeding team developed the brachytic dwarf BMR forages for commercial use in the United States and Argentina. Advanta has more than 20 breeding locations and labs around the world that are working to develop the hybrids represented in the Alta Seeds product portfolio.
