The Laboratory <strong>of</strong> Sorghum Crops consists <strong>of</strong> 8 members : 4 scientific researchers and 4 technicians. As<br />
a result <strong>of</strong> scientific research in recent years, the laboratory has developed a set <strong>of</strong> self-pollination and<br />
sterile lines, synthesized and tested highly productive hybrid sorghum crops.<br />
Positive results are obtained <strong>from</strong> improved materials and therefore highly productive hybrids (6-8 t<br />
/ ha) <strong>of</strong> edible grain (endosperm amylopectin starch) and Soriz (Sorghum oryzoidum) have been<br />
developed.<br />

The laboratory staff made scientific research to elaborate advanced processes <strong>of</strong> castration and pollination<br />
on fertile base <strong>of</strong> flowering sorghum crops. High productivity <strong>of</strong> biomass (100 -120 t / ha with 14-16%<br />
<strong>of</strong> carbohydrates in juice) is obtained <strong>from</strong> sweet sorghum hybrids, created heterozygous Aa1 for<br />
forage production, glucose syrup, bioethanol, energy crickets. Development technology for sweet syrup<br />
production <strong>from</strong> sorghum sugar biomass.<br />
