I have access to a sorghum field that was used as a food plot for deer and pheasant last fall. Anybody ever graze sorghum after it sat all year? Anybody know if prussic acid or anything else would be an issue for pregnant cows?
 
It can make excellent feed.

How much grain is there, is the plant drought affected at all, how much of the stalk will the cows be eating?

Those are the questions you need to have the answers to in order to know if you may have any issues at all.

Here's an article of interest: http://aces.nmsu.edu/pubs/_b/B-808.pdf
