Delta BioRenewables proves viable corn supplement in sweet sorghum

In Tennessee, Delta BioRenewables delivered its first-ever commercial-sized batch of sweet sorghum juice to the Commonwealth Agri-Energy plant in Kentucky. Delta BioRenewables is looking to supplement corn with sorghum, which is drought tolerant and a good rotation crop. After the successful test batch, the company hopes to use sweet sorghum for approximately 5 percent of its annual ethanol production.
