The National Sorghum Producers opened entries for the 2026 National Sorghum Yield Contest, inviting growers nationwide to compete across multiple categories and production methods. Participants will be eligible for state and national awards in East and West regions, with divisions including Irrigated, Dryland No-Till, and Dryland Tillage, as well as an overall Food Grade winner. Organizers say flexible verification options, with either market-based grain ticketing or traditional on-farm weigh-backs, are intended to increase accessibility and participation. The entry deadline is November 24, 2026, with harvest forms due by December 2. “This contest is about more than just yield; it’s about recognizing innovation, sharing knowledge, and pushing the boundaries of what’s possible in sorghum production,” said NSP CEO Tim Lust. Winners will be honored at the 2027 Commodity Classic, highlighting top-performing growers and advancements across the sorghum industry.
