The U.S. Grains Council released its 2024-2025 Sorghum Quality Report, which shows that U.S. sorghum was, on average, graded above the requirements for U.S. No. 1 certification. “The Council’s mission is to develop markets, enable trade, and improve lives, and what better way to support that mission than to offer transparent reports on grain quality as a service to our partners worldwide to help them make the best purchasing decisions,” said Verity (VER-ih-tee) Ulibarri (oo-lih-BAR-ee), USGC Chair. “We hope it provides valuable information for them.” Total sorghum damage came in at 0.3 percent in the aggregate, and no heat damage was observed in samples. Kernel diameter, an indicator of maturity and resiliency, was similar to last year and the five-year average of previous reports. Also, tannins were absent from the sorghum samples for the sixth consecutive year, and starch and oil content both increased from last year’s crop.
