Sugar distribution in sweet stalk sorghum
Food Chemistry, 1984Among the seventeen cultures of sweet stalk sorghum screened for their juice and sugar content at two different stages, IS 9889 contained the highest percentage of total sugars. Sugar content was found to increase from the soft dough stage to the dead ripe stage.

Sweet Sorghum as a Biofuel Crop
2010Sweet sorghum is a C4 grass which is traditionally cultivated for making syrup from the sugars in the stalks. Sweet and grain sorghum are in the same species, Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench. In optimum conditions, sweet sorghum can grow 4.5 meters tall and produce 45 to 110 Mg of fresh weight biomass per hectare with less N and water than maize.

Field Harvest of Sweet Sorghum Juice
Transactions of the ASAE, 1983ABSTRACT A forage harvester was modified to perform in-field harvest of sweet sorghum juice. Tests were conducted to determine operating characteristics of the machine and to evaluate the potential of sweet sorghum as a source for ethanol in Central Illinois.

A Harvesting and Handling System for Sweet Sorghum
Transactions of the ASAE, 1985ABSTRACT Afield machine was assembled with components to top and grip sorghum stalks, and to cut them into 30-cm billets which were elevated into a trailer. The total and net energies of combined components harvesting billets at 8 t/h were 1.0 and 0.3 kW-h/t, respectively. Leaf stripping used 55% of the total energy. Harvested crop had 4% leaves, a 70%

Design Factors for Milling Sweet Sorghum
Transactions of the ASAE, 1984ABSTRACT Two varieties of sweet sorghum (Wray and M 8IE), in 30 cm billets or in whole stalks, were processed with a modified shredder and/or modified mill to obtain basic system design information. The shredder-mill eliminated hand feeding of whole stalks and the system could be automated to operate continuously at maximum feed rate, which was 2.5 ...

Leaf and Panicle Separator for Sweet Sorghum
Sugar Tech, 2018High-biomass sweet sorghum is considered a promising energy crop suitable for the production of energy, first- and second-generation biofuels and biobased chemicals. Processing in a typical sugar cane mill or dedicated sorghum mill is challenged by the presence of trash (leaves and panicles).

A Leaf-Removal Principle for Sweet Sorghum
Transactions of the ASAE, 1983ABSTRACT LEAVES on sweet sorghum stalks reduce juice quality, sugar, and ethanol obtainable from the crop, and reduce the payload of the crop. A device using rubber fingers to remove the leaves from rows of standing stalks was developed, tested and evaluated. It was simple, compact, reliable, and safe.

Single-Pass Harvesting of Sweet Sorghum
Applied Engineering in Agriculture, 1990Two harvesters were evaluated in a one-pass harvesting system for sweet sorghum. The evaluation was based on harvesting performance, operating problems, and quality of juice extracted. Theoretical field capacities of the two machines were 0.08 ha/h (0.21 acre/h) and 0.03 ha/h (0.07 acre/h). Results indicated that extraction of juice during harvest by a
