El mijo japonés [...] es una especie anual, alta, robusta, de 60-120 cm de altura. Se cultiva como cereal en los trópicos y subtrópicos. Sembrada durante la temporada lluviosa, alcanza la madurez en 6 semanas, aproximadamente, con buenos rendimientos de un forraje bastante basto. Exige, para dar buen rendimiento, suelos fértiles y húmedos, pero bien drenados. Crece vigorosamente, tolera inundaciones temporales y, algunas veces, puede pastarse ya tres semanas después de sembrada. [...] En los arrozales y algodonales es a veces una mala hierba. Es apropiada para ensilar, pero excesivamente suculenta para la henificación. 3, record 1, Spanish, - mijo%20japon%C3%A9s
