Nebraska Sorghum Growers Association members held a virtual meeting with Nebraska Congressman Adrian Smith and Staff of Representative Don Bacon this week. Association Executive Director Nate Blum says one of the concerns for sorghum growers and many in agriculture is how they’ll be impacted by the Biden administration’s move to climate change. Blum says there are opportunities for sorghum to be a solution for environmental sustainability.

He says sorghum is in a better position than other crops to capture carbon which is critical in enhancing the climate.

Blum says trade was also a big part of their virtual discussions with Congressman Adrian Smith and Representative Don Bacon’s staff members.

Blum says his Association will be hosting a meeting next week with Congressman Don Bacon in North Platte and in Sydney.
