Sentinel IG

Sentinel IG is a medium—ripened hybrid of red grain sorghum

Sentinel IG is a medium—ripened hybrid of grain sorghum from the company AlemAgro, which has a unique resistance to imidazolinone (IMI) herbicides. This is the first hybrid of grain sorghum with a similar characteristic. It combines high yield potential, excellent moisture loss and high adaptability to various agro-climatic conditions.

The key advantages of Sentinel IG

Resistance to IMI herbicides
The first hybrid of grain sorghum with resistance to imidazolinone herbicides, which significantly expands the possibilities of weed control.

High yield
The yield potential reaches 105 kg/ha or more, providing a stable economic result.

Excellent moisture wicking
A loose, spreading panicle helps to quickly reduce grain moisture before harvesting.

High tillering ratio
The average tillering coefficient is 2-3, with intensive technology and favorable conditions it can reach 5, which increases the productivity of crops.
