        abstract = {Sweet sorghum can be grown under dryland conditions with annual rainfall
ranging from 550-750 mm. The best areas to produce this crop are Central
and South India, subtropical areas of Uttar Pradesh and Uttaranchal. It can
be grown on well-drained soils such as silt loam or sandy silt clay loam soils
with a depth of 0.75 m. Atmospheric temperatures suitable for sweet sorghum
growth vary between 15 and 37?C. Sorghum being a C4 species is adapted to
a wide range of environments with latitudes ranging from 40oN to 40oS of the
equator. Sorghum in general has relatively a deep root system ({\ensuremath{>}}1.5 m), and
has the unique feature of being ?dormant? under unfavorable conditions and
resume growth once environmental conditions are favorable}
