Nebraska sorghum production jumped 77 percent in 2021 and the head of the state’s sorghum boards says that’s mostly driven by increases in commodity prices and new markets.
Nate Blum tells Brownfield “We’ve seen markets consistently as much as a $1.20 over corn. Right now, markets typically are .15 to .20 over corn and so those markets continue to be really strong, and I think that was really important as many people were considering their planting decisions this last year.”
He says China was the biggest customer.
