We grew sorghum back in the 70s for one year but it got stuck in the drier and burnt the drier down to the ground. Dad said they couldn't stop the flames. What's the soil like in Kansas? Is it sandy or clayey? Is there any sinkholes?

It depends on where you are. We have sandy and clay which we call gumbo. We don't have much for sink holes. They are usually an old well or a waterline or something if we have one.
