A founding act
establishing a European sorghum sector
The Real Potential of Sorghum in Europe
It was the subject for the first and successful European Sorghum Congress held in Bucharest on 3 and 4 November, 2016. The two days of discussion and debate produced clear conclusions : there is real potential for sorghum to develop in Europe.
Therefore, at the end of the Congress, the different stakeholders in sorghum production voiced their ambition to join together as a European force, working on the basis of a common strategic goal and a common action plan, playing an active role to establish a sector for the purpose of developing and promoting sorghum in Europe.
This 1st European Sorghum Congress thus stands as the founding act of the organisation known as Sorghum ID.
