Benefits and Applications of Sorghum

Sorghum is rich in energy and fiber, making it ideal for feeding cattle, poultry and pigs. In industry, it is used in the production of flour, beer and biofuels.

Sorghum is the fifth most planted cereal in the world.

In Brazil, the main producing states are Goiás, Minas Gerais and São Paulo.

O sorgo é uma opção de sucessão de culturas da 2º safra do Centro Oeste, pois seu custo de produção é menor que o do milho e menor exigência hídrica que o milho.
