Yes but it's likely not the sorgrum your thinking of. I grow the BMR varieties. I mow it down when it's about 30" to 36" tall and chop it for silage. Cows milk like crazy off the stuff. Or I graze the milk cows on it when it get about 24" tall. I know the stuff can get about 5-6 feet tall if you don't harvest it, although it dosn't have much feed value at that time. And around here in SW NY state the stuff would be so rank and heavy you'd never get the moisture out of it enough to chop.
