When and how to harvest Sorghum?

The best time for harvest is when grains become hard and contain less than 25 % moisture. Once the crop gets mature, harvest it immediately. For harvesting sickles are used. The plants are cut from near the ground level. After then stalks are tied into bundles of convenient sizes and stacked on the threshing floor. After 2 to 3 days remove ear heads from plants. In some cases, only ear heads are removed from the standing crop and collected on the threshing floor. After then they should be dried in sun for 3 to 4 days.
