Summer grains

Grain sorghum is the main summer cereal crop grown in northern NSW. It is mainly used as stock feed in the cattle, pig and poultry industries. Sorghum stubble can also be utilised after harvest as stock fodder. Maize is the other main summer growing cereal.

Rice is a summer grain sown mostly in the Murrumbidgee and Murray Valleys of NSW. The rice industry is recognised as a producer of high quality rice with attributes that satisfy diverse markets.
