Frequently Asked Questions
Can Sorghum replace maize in animal feed?
Yes, Sorghum can substitute for maize as an energy source in most formulations, though low-tannin varieties are preferred for poultry to maintain digestibility.
Why does tannin content matter for poultry?
High-tannin sorghum varieties can reduce protein digestibility and palatability in poultry, so low-tannin varieties are prioritized for chicken feed formulations.
