This study reviews the optimization of efficient cultivation modes for edible sorghum, focusing on challenges such as climate change, resource constraints, and pest pressure. The studyexplores the agricultural ecological needs of sorghum, including its adaptability to climate and soil conditions, as well as its nutritional requirements; Analyzed the research progress on using advanced genetic tools to cultivate new sorghum varieties with strong stress resistance and good regional adaptability. A summary was conducted on key agronomic practices such as planting techniques, fertilization management, and irrigation strategies to improve yield and resource utilization efficiency. In addition, the studyalso introduces how integrated pest and disease management, soil and water resource protection, and the application of modern technologies such as precision agriculture and decision support systems can further improve the productivity of sorghum. The case study demonstrates the optimization mode of sustainable cultivation of sorghum, including farmer innovation that adapts to local conditions and environmentally friendly farming methods. At the same time, the studyanalyzes the main obstacles to implementing efficient models, such as resource scarcity, environmental pressure, and insufficient policy support. At the end of the review, suggestions were put forward to optimize cultivation strategies, promote genetic improvement, and promote planting patterns according to local conditions, providing a scientific basis for achieving sustainable sorghum production and ensuring global food security.
