Faunsdale, AL
I don't know about millet.

The stuff that I chopped after it froze was a regular grain sorghum (milo). I was just trying the double crop behind corn silage idea, so I got what the local guy could get me quickly. The next time I did it i got the BMR forage type.

When you are making silage there is never a danger from prussic acid. It dissipates in the ensiling process. Same if you make dry hay from a sorghum/sudan cross, by the time its cured, the cyanide compounds have volatilized. Grazing or green chop are dangerous after frost or freeze until the leaves have dried down.
