The forecast for sorghum production in India from 2024 to 2028 shows a declining trend. From 2.5833 million metric tons in 2024, production is expected to decrease by 9.4% in 2025, 10.1% in 2026, 11.1% in 2027, and 12.2% in 2028. This steady decline indicates significant challenges for the sector compared to the production in 2023, which stood at 2.7 million metric tons. Over the five-year period, this equates to a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of approximately -10%.
Future trends to watch include potential changes in agricultural policy, advances in sorghum cultivation technology, climate change impacts, and shifts in domestic and global demand. Strategies for adaptation could influence this trajectory.
