In soil, most of the zinc stays bound to the solid particles. When high levels of zinc are present in soils, such as at a hazardous waste site, the metal can seep into the groundwater. Industries also can release dust containing higher levels of zinc into the air we breathe.

Large acreages of grain sorghum are also grown in Africa and Asia in areas where the climate is too hot and dry for corn. During the past 25 years, the grain sorghum acreage in the U.S. has ranged from 15 to 18 million acres per year.Grain sorghum acreage is somewhat greater than acreages for oats and barley, but considerably less than the land area planted to corn, wheat, and soybeans.arge acreages of grain sorghum are also grown in Africa and Asia in areas where the climate is too hot and dry for corn.
