Sorghum is one of the world's major cereals, cultivated in the
semi-arid tropics for a growing range of uses. Like other crops it
faces the need to meet rising demand whilst reducing its
environmental impact and adapting to the challenges of climate
change. This volume summarises the wealth of research addressing
these challenges. Part 1 reviews the chemistry of sorghum and its
physiology, before discussing its use as a food grain, in feed and
as a forage and energy crop. The second part of the book discusses
ways of improving cultivation in regions such as South America,
Asia and Africa. With its distinguished editor and international
team of expert authors, this will be a standard work for cereal
scientists, sorghum breeders and growers as well as government and
non-government agencies supporting sorghum cultivation. It is
accompanied by a companion volume which reviews genetics, breeding
and production techniques.
