Michael Abbey, International Affairs Specialist and Asia Program Coordinator for the Agriculture Research Service, says – the signing establishes a virtual joint center for a series of projects. He added, - we also intend to include universities and business in both China and the United States.
Tim Lust, CEO of the National Sorghum Producers said – this is a milestone for the sorghum industry and for our members as the world turns its attention to sorghum. Lust pointed out that - sorghum’s water sipping qualities, short growing season and ability to grow on 80 percent of the world’s land, including some marginal agricultural areas, really lends it to biofuels production.
