Grain Sorghum
Grain Sorghum Seed
Grain sorghum, commonly known as milo, is one of the most dependable row crops for producers across West Texas, the Texas Panhandle, Eastern New Mexico, and the Oklahoma Panhandle. Known for its drought tolerance, water-use efficiency, and consistent yield potential, grain sorghum continues to be a reliable choice for dryland and limited-irrigation farming.
At Jack Seed & Supply, we carry proven grain sorghum hybrids from trusted seed companies, helping producers find the right variety for their acres, soil type, irrigation program, and production goals.
Conventional Grain Sorghum
Conventional grain sorghum hybrids provide dependable performance for producers looking for high yield potential, strong standability, and proven adaptability. These hybrids are an excellent choice for operations with traditional weed management programs and diverse production environments.
Herbicide-Tolerant Grain Sorghum
Herbicide-tolerant grain sorghum offers added flexibility for weed control while maintaining excellent yield potential. We carry hybrids with herbicide trait technologies that help producers manage difficult weed pressure without sacrificing performance.
Dryland Grain Sorghum
Grain sorghum has long been one of the best crops for dryland farming across the High Plains. With excellent drought tolerance and efficient moisture utilization, many hybrids are well-suited for producers managing limited rainfall while still targeting profitable yields.
Irrigated Grain Sorghum
Under irrigation, today’s grain sorghum hybrids can produce outstanding yields while using less water than many other row crops. We offer hybrids selected for strong performance in both full and limited irrigation systems.

Depending on your production needs, we also offer grain sorghum hybrids with characteristics such as bird resistance, early maturity, stay-green, standability, and other agronomic traits that help improve harvestability and field performance.
