The study was carried out to find the constraints in production and marketing of sorghum and measures to over come it. Two tehsils Kasrawad and Bhikangaon of Khargone district were selected for study. Eight villages were selected randomly among sorghum cultivated village. Farmers were categorized into three groups namely small (0-2 ha), medium (2.1-4 ha) and large (4.1 and above). Nine farmers were selected from each village. The number of farmers in each size group was 3 in number from a village. Total sample size was 72. Input output ratio of small, medium and large size group were 1:1.72, 1:1.61 and 1:1.56 and 1:1.63 for overall. It was found from the study that marginal land was used for cultivating sorghum crop among large and medium farmers. In marketing of sorghum it was found that 22.35 per cent of the consumer’s price was accounted for marketing cost. 61 per cent of consumer’s price was received by the producers. Low market price of the produce and long duration of the sorghum crop were the major constraints reported by framers. Alternative use of sorghum has to be found out and short duration varieties have to be developed for the sorghum improvement.
