Fresh Sorghum — Detailed Guide
Sorghum from Primitive Plus
Players of the Primitive Plus DLC for ARK: Survival Evolved grow Fresh Sorghum from Sorghum Seeds; the wiki dates it to version 1.5 (Primitive Plus). The game says it is "Harvested from a sorghum plant. Used in a variety of recipes." The ARK Wiki knows of two uses for it: taming creatures and making Sorghum Syrup.
Turning it into Sorghum Syrup
Our records list one recipe that uses it: Sorghum Syrup, which takes 2 Fresh Sorghum. Each Fresh Sorghum weighs 0.1, and a full stack of 100 weighs 10.
The wiki also points out an oddity: the 
Biscuit Batter item description talks about syrup made from Sorghum, but that recipe currently contains none.
Feeding it to herbivores
During a tame, Fresh Sorghum restores 20 food points, where normal crops like 
Rockarrot restore 40. A tame still needs the same quantity as with those crops, and the wiki describes Sorghum taming as twice as fast. Without the right kibble, the wiki treats it as the top choice for herbivores, though taming effectiveness may end up very low.
- For the
Triceratops, 
Ankylosaurus, Wooly Rhino and 
Parasaur, tests found it as effective as Spinach and Lettuce. - For Mammoths it is about 15x as effective, and the wiki calls it the most efficient food for taming them.
