The average yield of the variety is 3 310 kg ha-1 of grain and 27 105 kg ha-1 of green forage, superior on average 15.4 and 25.47% respectively, to the performance of commercial hybrids, which are grown in the region under the same conditions in temporary. VCS-Diamante has, like commercial hybrids, acceptable bromatological quality in forage, with 6.21% protein and 78.66% digestibility. It is tolerant to diseases that occur in the region, such as: ergot (Claviceps africana), anthracnose (Colletotrichum graminicola), blight of the panicle (Fusarium moniliforme) and carbonaceous rot of the stem (Macrophomina phaseolina), it has tolerance to the yellow aphid sorghum (Melanaphis sacchari Zehntner).
