Assuming that alcohol can be produced from sweet sorghum, growers need such incentives as high potential alcohol yield per acre, lower fertilizer and water inputs, more-efficient feedstock, high biomass yield, potential as a cash crop, and favorable economic considerations in relation to other crops. Problems with juice preservation, harvesting equipment, transportation to processing plants, and treatment of by-products must be overcome before such use for large-scale production is likely. 4 tables.
