Narrative
Original source of 1 pound of certified Turghai was received April, 1957 from William G. Stewart, Assistant Extension Agronomist, Colorado Seed Growers Association, Fort Colins, CO. This was the only certified variety of Proso grown in Colorado at that time. In 1957, a small isolation plot was seeded on the Agronomy Farm and rogued before pollination to eliminate any white proso types. Over 1600 pounds of foundation certified seed was produced under isolation on the Agronomy Farm in 1958. The Agronomy Seed Farm, Casselton, produced ~32,000 pounds of certified seed in 1959 which was released to seed growers in the spring of 1960. Variety introduced from Russia by E.A. Bessey, USDA, in 1903. Has a spreading panicle and is medium to tall in height (30-40 inches tall in eastern ND). Outer chaff of the seed is reddish to purplish green during the period of anthesis to shortly before maturity and straw-colored at maturity. Mature seed hull is yellowish to reddish brown. Bran or seed coat is creamy white when hulled. Stems are course, hollow, and woody and can be round to flattened. Stems and leaves are covered with fine hairs. Mid-season in maturity, heading from 7-10 days earlier than Common White proso. In ND, Turghai heads in late July following early June seedings. Outyeilds Common White and Early Fortune by 10-20% based on several years of trials at Fargo.
