Description | composition

Red sorghum is a high-starch cereal grain known for its solid energy contribution and strong feeding performance across livestock systems. The grain is processed through cleaning and screening to ensure uniformity, reduce impurities, and provide a safe ingredient suitable for feed mills and direct on-farm use. Thanks to its robust nutrient profile and good digestibility, red sorghum serves as an effective alternative to maize or wheat in balanced diets. It supports growth, feed efficiency, and overall animal health, performing well in both monogastric and ruminant species. Its darker pericarp naturally contains antioxidants, offering additional nutritional value in some formulations.
