Evaluation of Sorghum Food Quality
1982
Rooney, L W | Murty, D S
Sorghum (S. bicolor L. Moench) is a staple commodity in several parts of the world and ranks fifth as a cereal crop in terms of production and utilization. However, the food quality of sorghum has not yet been clearly defined, probably because it is not used in commercial foods to the extent that wheat, rice, and maize are utilized. In sorghum consuming areas, only limited quantities of the product appears in metropolitan markets, and there are few if any standards available to distinguish grain quality, which is evaluated primarily by subjective criteria such as kernel color, appearance, size, and shape.
