In 2023, Australia’s sorghum production stood at 1.39 million metric tons. For the upcoming period, the forecast indicates a steady increase. For 2024 and 2025, the production is predicted to remain constant at 1.4 million metric tons. A slight uptick is expected starting in 2026 with 1.41 million metric tons, continuing through 2027, and reaching 1.42 million metric tons by 2028. The year-on-year variation from 2024 to 2025 remains stagnant, but between 2025 and 2026 as well as 2026 and 2027, the growth is subtle, at approximately 0.71%. By 2028, the cumulative average growth rate (CAGR) from 2024 to 2028 is approximately 0.36% per year.
Future trends to watch for include potential impacts from climate change on crop yields, advancements in agricultural technology to enhance productivity, and fluctuations in global demand for sorghum which could affect pricing and production incentives.
