At The Land Institute, perennial sorghum research technician, Megan Gladbach, takes us behind the scenes and underneath the glow of LED lights in the perennial sorghum wing of one our greenhouses, where she shares some background and updates on the program. The Land Institute is currently selecting for perennial growth habit and grain productivity in diverse environments in the United States and several African countries, including Uganda, Mali, and Kenya, with the goal of developing commercially viable varieties that could produce repeated, sufficient grain harvests without re-sowing.
