Sorghum,India price supplier

Sorghum is used for food, fodder, and the production of alcoholic beverages. It is drought tolerant and heat tolerant and is especially important in arid regions. It is an important food crop in Africa, Central America, and South Asia, and is the "fifth most important cereal crop grown in the world". African slaves introduced sorghum into the U.S., where most of the world's commercially grown sorghum is now produced, in the early 17th century.

Sorghum and Beer
In Nigeria and Lesotho, sorghum is used to produce beer, including the local version of Guinness. In recent years, sorghum has been used as a substitute for other grain in gluten free beer. Although the African versions are not "gluten free", as malt extract is also used, truly gluten free beer using such substitutes such as sorghum or Buckwheat are now available. Sorghum is used in the same way as barley to produce a "malt" that can form the basis of a mash that will brew a beer without gliadin or hordein (together "gluten") and therefore can be suitable for coeliacs or others sensitive to certain glycoproteins.
