The Soriz has been created by the author of this publication in the early 80th of the last century at the Research Institute of Corn and Sorghum (now Institute of Crop Science „Porumbeni”), RM, by the step-cross breeding of grain sorghum (Sorghum bicolor L. Moench) with sudan grass. The biochemical composition and technological parameters of the grain of soriz are very similar to those of rice grain (Oryza sativa L.). Based on this it was decided to give a common name: soriz (Sorghum oryzoidum). According to the morphobiological characteristics, the soriz plant is similar to the grain sorghum, showing increased resistance to prolonged drought, good tolerance of soil salinity and, in comparison with corn, is unpretentiousness to soil fertility. To form one unit of dry matter mass, soriz consumes 25-30% less moisture than corn and 1.2-1.6 times less than rice when is cultivated without irrigation. The grain yield is at the level of hybrid corn, and in dry years, especially in the southern regions of the Republic of Moldova, soriz exceeds corn by 2-3 t / ha. Soriz kernels can be processed into 36 products. Of particular value are products from soriz grain containing: 10.5 - 13.4% protein, 3.7-4.05% fat and 65.2 - 75.6% starch. The results of biochemical analyzes of soriz grains cereals carried out by prestigious research institutes from Chisinau, Odessa, Moscow and Galati (Romania), demonstrate that soriz products utilized in food are similar to rice cereals (especially according to the taste and quality). The yield of whole cereals from grain is up to 65-76%, and from semolina up to 78%, which, due to the content of amylopectin (rice starch) and the absence of gluten (gluten), can successfully replace semolina for consumption by children and adults, in features of gluten allergy. The receipt of high-quality alcoholic beverages (beer, vodka) and yoghurts from soriz grain has been confirmed. For the industrial production of these cereals, technological documentation has been developed and tested. The authors have created 7 hybrids and one soriz variety, of which 4 hybrids and a variety are approved in RM, 2 hybrids in Ukraine and one hybrid in the Russian Federation and Romania. The above list is the results of breeding studies regarding the soriz plant created in the Republic of Moldova. This new variety indicate its increasing relevance and demand, in the current period of global warming to ensure the stability of food grain yields in conditions of frequent droughts.
