Uso De Molinos Cti Para La Producción Y Uso De Harina De Sorgo, Lily Lopez, Kris Duville, Carla Bermudez, Vilma Ruth Calderón, Lloyd Rooney

INTSORMIL Presentations

El aprovechamiento del sorgo para la alimentación humana permite agregar valor al cultivo y aumentar su rentabilidad, especialmente para pequeños y medianos productores, contribuyendo a la seguridad alimentaria y nutricional del país.

CENTA esta promoviendo el cultivo del sorgo como una alternativa para la produccion de alimentos en las areas rurales.

Desde 2010 cuando el trigo bajo de precio nuevamente, dejo de ser una alternativa para la sustitucion del trigo, pero se le han buscado mercados mas estables, personas alergicas al gluten, personas diabéticas, y productos nutritivos para corregir deficiencias nutricionales como la anemia por falta de hierro, productos artesanales …

Returns To The Introduction Of New Sorghum Cultivars Into The Dairy Industry Of El Salvador, Alexis H. Villacís, John H. Sanders

INTSORMIL Presentations

The driver of agricultural development is the introduction of new technology. Sensitive sorghums have long been a critical component of hillside Central American agriculture providing a reserve or insurance policy when the principal staple of maize falters. The insensitive sorghums have been more recently introduced since the ‘70s for planting in the valleys in the second season. In the last thirty years the introduction of new insensitive cultivars has accelerated initially for poultry and in the previous two decades for dairy production. This growth has been facilitated by strategic investments in research by CENTA and the Ministry of Agriculture.

Sorghum Clear Beer Value Chain, Bernadette C. Chimai

INTSORMIL Presentations

The markets and industrial utilization of agricultural commodities have undergone considerable change in the last few decades.

In Zambia, sorghum was considered a traditional crop with limited industrial uses.

Research and transformations in consumer tastes and preferences have led to the development of new uses for sorghum.

Potential markets for industrial utilization of sorghum have been identified as food processing, beer brewing, feed concentrates and energy production.

One of the success stories in industrial utilization of sorghum has been Eagle, a sorghum based clear beer produced by Zambian breweries.

The study reported in this paper aims to examine the main …

Eagle Lager: A Sorghum Success Story On Many Levels, Ian Mackintosh

INTSORMIL Presentations

In 1999 in Uganda we were faced with a static but highly competitive market.

Needed to grow our market and to do this we needed to make beer cheaper

It was felt that a suitable local ingredient would reduce the cost of manufacture and stimulate local agriculture and the economy as well as provide opportunities for growth and profit for the company.

An extensive base line study of the Ugandan agricultural sector was undertaken to determine what was “out there.”

It was clear that there was enormous potential but little else.

Sorghum seemed the logical starting point because there was …
