GLOBAL MARKET DEMAND
Sorghum is a major food crop in Africa and has many other uses as well. It is used as a food product, as hay and also as fodder. Sorghum is valued in hot and arid regions largely for its resistance to drought and heat. The Sorghum exporter in India exports good quality Sorghum to various parts of the world. The Sorghum import from India has thus seen a steady increase over the past few years.
