Poster evaluates sweet sorghum for bioethanol production potential, indicating its use as a renewable feedstock.
This poster highlights the evaluation of sweet sorghum germplasm for sugar-related traits and bioethanol production potential in Zimbabwe. By assessing phenology, sugar accumulation, juice yield, and fermentation efficiency, the study identified promising genotypes with strong potential as renewable biofuel feedstocks. The results support the use of sweet sorghum in sustainable energy systems and provide valuable insights for breeding improved, climate-resilient varieties. The study was developed as part of the project “Exploring wide crosses derived crop biodiversity (sorghum x maize) for climate resilience and food and nutrition security in Eastern and Southern Africa” funded by the Benefit Sharing Fund (BSF) of the International Treaty of Plant Genetic Resources for Food and Agriculture (ITPGRFA) of the Food and Agriculture Organisation (FAO) of the United Nations (UN).
