Description:
German Foxtail Millet is a warm season annual grass, also known as German Strain R Millet or Foxtail Millet. It can be harvested for hay or used for grazing for livestock and wildlife, including deer and game birds. German millet matures quickly, producing coarse, leafy, slender stems that grow from 2-5 feet tall. It does not produce as much biomass as pearl millet. Like all millets, this species is fast-growing and produces relatively high yields with no danger of producing toxic levels of prussic acid. Avoid feeding severely stressed plants to livestock as they may accumulate high levels of nitrate. Foxtail Millets are available in the form of rice, semolina (Rava) or fine-textured flour.
