- Is it true, what they say, in that milo plants are really itchy? Several farmer friends, of mine, have said so, but want a 2nd opinion
- Nice Sorghum harvest video. You should add in a Kopper Kutter ARRO - Alternate Rotary Rowcrop Option version. We've converted many OEM cornheads in our KK LLC shop in Cimarron, KS. Petersons in Wheatfield Indiana and Vaughn Davis in at Schoolhouse Farms in Ohio use them for Milo or Sunflowers.

- Hi from France. A question for all US sorghum growers. I will plant a few acres of sorghum - very early variety- next May for the first time. The row spacing will be 12 inches. Do you think it will fit in comparison with the traditional 30 in ? Thank you all for your answer ! Jean

- Mike I know that South Texas is a far drive but if your in the region some time, I'd love to have you out and let you film some of our operation. We farm corn, milo and cotton and planting starts early February with harvest beginning in mid June and running till the end of August. Love the videos.
- I see your video is nice, good Camera man.
- it's been 25 years since I've been around milo harvest but just seeing the dust makes me feel itchy!
- I've seen other grain sorghum harvested with a corn header. Any reason why some farmers harvest it with a platform header, while others use a row header?
- Are you by any chance a Versatile salesman? They seem to be your specialty.
- Do they go back and harvest the straw for bedding or do they just till it under?
- I do have a question for you Mike, what is the most common method of dealing with that much residue with milo? Seems like way more than say corn.
- I have some really bad memories of milo lol I had to scoop behind the bin sweep of many a bushel in Texas and I tell you what there is few things with more dust than milo. But the egg farms absolutely love the stuff.

Dallas TV show ( Jr Ewing) theme song 1986 cutting milo would be good background music but copyrights

- Great music to go along with great video.
