Abstract
Experiments with Sudan grass cv. Trudan II, (a) Sorghum sudanense X S. bicolor hybrids, pearl millet cv. Tamworth, Echinochloa frumentacea, S. saccharatum cv. Sugar Drip and maize cv. (b) PX 610 and XL45 in Nelson and Marlborough, New Zealand indicated that (a) and (b) could yield 17-18 t DM/ha if harvesting was delayed until late summer or early autumn and where rainfall was adequate following sowing. Yields were often lower where no rainfall was received for several wk during crop establishment or when crops were harvested prior to late summer
