Sorghum had two principal uses traditionally, as a cereal grain that was eaten, and as fermented grain used to produce alcoholic beverages, hence the elements「flow, fluid」and「two-edged grain.」An「emissions weir, fish trap, snare」assists to cause「rafter, woody beam spurting」:
　「Although sorghum…is best known as a grain crop, the sweet type is used mainly as livestock fodder: its high rate of photosynthesis produces leafy stalks up to 5 metres tall [16 feet, a「beam, rafter」] that make excellent silage. The stalks are also rich in sugar, which can be processed into jaggery or distilled to produce ethanol [「emissions」of grain alcohol, suitable for human consumption]. Sweet sorghum has also been called「a camel among crops」owing to its wide adaptability, its marked resistance to drought and saline-alkaline soils, and tolerance to waterlogging.」

Modern definitions (that generally disregard history) …excluding politically incorrect concepts and other meanings deemed offensive today; may list only pigeonholed definitions, euphemisms, or meaningless mnemonics)
Chinese: sorghum
Unihan extended: better varieties of millet
EDRDG: high quality rice

Always keep in mind that these glyphs were originally created by groups of clever old men as vulgar riddles and analogies for their own entertainment (see 籒 for that) and represented Chinese society many thousands of years ago, and not as a written or spoken language. If these glyphs had been intended for language use, the sages could not have possibly designed a worse system. Is it truly possible that all these glyphs started out as off-color jokes and puzzles? Yes! It is! Sex had no shame in ancient China. Why would it? And now, there is a cover-up. No one is suggesting these glyphs depict contemporary life in China, Japan, or anywhere else. This site describes glyph meanings, not people. These glyphs however, describe many and various things, including people, long before there were any notions of becoming politically incorrect. The question to be answered is, should these glyphs continue being used, by anyone, anywhere, for expressing language? (More...) Despite how bad the human world is today, do you actually believe that the so-called good old days were any better? Or they could only have been worse?

By the way, with a limited number of the same elements used by the sages again and again to form these glyphs, you should expect to find the same explanations again and again, as tedious as that may become, and as an inherent trait of any dictionary. This site explains the dual meanings of glyphs most often ignored by other sources that provide you with only the sanctioned definition, generally.
