Sorghum production in the United States is significant, with cultivation strategically dispersed across six states. Each of these states offers unique advantages conducive to sorghum growth, including favorable climates and soil conditions. Sorghum, a versatile grain crop, thrives in areas with abundant sunlight, warm temperatures, and well-drained soils.

The cultivation of sorghum in these states not only supports local agricultural economies but also sustains diverse industries, including food processing, animal feed, and biofuel production. Additionally, sorghum serves as a valuable source of nutrition for both humans and animals, contributing to food security and livestock feed supply chains.
