This work displays the results of the research aimed at the creation of high-sugar forms of sweet sorghum. During 2019 and 2020 samples of sweet sorghum from the collections of N. I. Vavilov All-Russian Institute of Genetic Resources of Plants and the Agrotechnological Academy FSAEI HE “V. I. Vernadsky Crimean Federal University” were studied, new hybrids were derived. Of the particular interest are the high-sugar forms. The juice of sorghum stems contains sugars that can easily compete in quality with those of sugar beet. The plant can be used to produce alcohol and biofuel.
