A lot of the fields around here seem to be growing grain sorghum. Any Ag types know why?

3. Sorghum is heat and drought resistant. It is a good rotational crop, corn grows better

with sorghum rotation.

Farmers might be getting a better price for sorghum than corn.

Or if the farmers are planting feed corn, perhaps they are switching the cows to sorghum.
Internet says dairy cows produce more milk on sorghum.

Internet also says sorghum is becoming more popular with consumer and emerging markets.

I am not an Ag type, so don't know the answer. Just guessing.

Hopefully someone will answer this question.

If you know a farmer, stop by and ask him or his wife.
