It is leafier, later maturing and more vigorous and productive than common pearl millet. Also recovers faster after grazing than common pearl millet.

Starr millet, however, is more leafy than Gahi and is easier to manger under graz- ing. Hence, both Gahi and Starr are con- sidered excellent varieties for North Carolina. Write for prices.
