Agronomic crops can be categorized into height categories such as short, medium, and tall, each with distinct characteristics. Short crops, like certain varieties of wheat, tend to have a sturdier structure, allowing them to withstand harsh weather and resist lodging.

Tall crops, like sorghum, typically have higher productivity due to increased photosynthetic capacity but may require more management to prevent lodging.
