Subject Sorghum
Agriculture-Farming, Production, Technology, Economics
 
Description It is appropriate that the technical sessions of the
Sorghum in the Eighties Symposium should start
with the physical environment because it is the
medium in which the biological material expresses
itself. The "properties" of the medium such as
radiation, rainfall, temperature, and soils control
the rate of the biological processes such as
nutrient uptake, photosynthesis, respiration, dry
matter accumulation, etc. An understanding of the
interactions between the properties and processes
should lead us to develop principles for
improved productivity of the sorghum crop.
