Bright future seen for grain sorghum

Grain sorghum just doesn’t have potential in biofuel production; it has a very bright future that could put it in a position to take over other feedstock sources for ethanol product.

“Sorghum has been greatly undervalued as a feedstock for biofuels in the future,” says Daphne Preuss of Chromatin Inc., a research and development corporation.

Preuss spoke at the National Sorghum Producer’s general session held this morning at the Commodity Classic in Kissimmee, Florida.

“Consider that sorghum is a high-yielding, nutrient-efficient and a drought tolerant crop that can be cultivated on over 80% of the world’s agricultural land,” Preuss told growers.
