Three K-State Sorghum Production Schools will be offered in late January to provide in-depth training targeted for sorghum producers and key-stakeholders. The schools are sponsored by Kansas Grain Sorghum Commission.
The schools will cover a number of issues facing sorghum growers: risk management, marketing opportunities, weed control, crop production practices, nutrient and soil fertility, and insect management.
