LEDE Imperial Whitetail Sorghum Select

Hunters and land managers looking to add additional feeding opportunities now have a new option: Imperial Whitetail brand Sorghum Select from the Whitetail Institute. This blend combines two premium hybrid sorghum varieties to deliver a high-yielding, palatable, nutritious grain crop.

  • Whitetail 25G2 Hybrid: An ultra-early maturing sorghum that produces highly palatable grain in approximately 85 days, ensuring quick deer attraction during the early season.
  • Whitetail 25G805 Hybrid: A later-maturing variety that reaches full grain development in approximately 100 days, extending feeding opportunities well into the late season.

By combining the two hybrids, landowners can maximize yield potential while benefiting from drought and disease resistance. The grain is attractive to whitetail deer, turkeys and game birds, making it a dependable choice for early- and late-season feeding.

Planting Guidelines:

  • Sow in spring or early summer after soil temperatures reach 65°F.
  • Choose medium to well-drained soil; avoid wet or muddy conditions.
  • Each bag plants ½ acre, making it ideal for small to medium-sized plots.
