The export market for U.S. grain sorghum is red hot.

According to data from the USDA, for the week that ended December 18th, sales of sorghum abroad totaled nearly 600-thousand metric tons. That’s the largest weekly export total for sorghum since 1995 and the second largest total on records dating back to 1990.
