In the past 5 years, the use of sorghum as substitutes for corn for feed in China has increased rapidly. Most of the recent growth of demand in sorghum has mainly been met by imported sorghum. Because sorghum is a minor crop and only shares a very small proportion of the grain production in China, few studies have examined domestic demand and supply of sorghum in China. Both China’s producers and other sorghum import countries can benefit from forecasts of China’s domestic supply and demand for sorghum.
