No. While the two plants may appear similar from a distance, they are two different species. Cow corn (usually called "field corn" or "dent corn") has its seed on an ear that is partway up the plant, just like sweet corn on the cob. Sorghum is another member of the grass family like corn, but has its seeds in a "spray" or inflorescence at the top of the plant where corn would have only its tassel.
