Sorghum seed

Sorghum seeds can be cooked as a grain and enjoyed in dishes that call for brown rice or barley. 

The seeds can be popped like popcorn. Sorghum flour is also used in breads and other baked dishes. 

Some varieties of sorghum were bred for their stalks, or canes, which produce a sugary liquid.

Sorghum is a genus of about 25 species of flowering plants in the grass family Poaceae.

Some of these species have grown as cereals for human consumption and some in pastures for animals. 

One species, Sorghum bicolor, was originally domesticated in Africa and has since spread throughout the globe.
