Sorghum is an annual plant in the grass family that grows up to 5 m in height. Grain sorghum is a staple crop in many hot dry areas and ranks 5th worldwide among cereal grains. Depending on the variety, sorghum is grown for grain, forage, fuel, fiber, syrup, and sugar. Cleaned grain can be cooked like rice or ground into flour. It is naturally gluten-free.
This Egytian variety of grain sorghum has a solid stalk and is suitable as a fuel source. The lignified stalks burn at a high temperature for a grass stem.
