The State of the Sorghum State
Friday, 20 June, 2025
Welcome back to the Sorghum State Podcast! Hosts Maddy Meier and Adam York bring listeners The State of the Sorghum State. From a $5.8 million public-private investment earlier this spring into the Collaborative Sorghum Investment Program (CSIP)—advancing research in drought tolerance, nutrient efficiency, and forage yield through 2036—to growing international interest in U.S. sorghum for pet food, momentum is building, where a recent trade team traveled to Kansas to evaluate sorghum’s potential as a high-value ingredient in global pet nutrition. Add to that sorghum’s rising profile in school meals and the return of the Sorghum Connection field days this August, and it’s clear Kansas sorghum is stepping into the spotlight this summer. --Find more details on the 2025 Sorghum Connection Field Day series here.
