Conteúdo: | This paper deals with production trends of sorghum in Brazil beginning in 1970 when grain sorghum began to expand in Southern Brazil to the present/ Grain sorghum is the principal theme of this discussion but forage sorghum and sweet sorghum for alcohol production are also discussed. The infrastructure for sorghum research in Brazil is discussed including the sorghum research in Brazil is discussed including the sorghum research projects of the National Center for Corn and Sorghum Research. The principal research "indings are summarized. The most important of these being the incorporation of midge resistance from a tall tropical photoperiod sensitive line (AF-28) to a short insensitive line, the development of sorghum lines tolerant to highly acid soils with high levels of exchangeable aluminum, the development of sorghum lines resistant to anthracnose of Brazil (reaction different from that obserd in the USA) and resistance to foliar diseases and the development of production systems for various levels of technology. The progress in symbiotic nitrogen fixation (Azospirillum lipoferum.) for sorghum is also discussed.
