Grain Commodities

Tuesday, November 24th, 2009

Grains are a part of foods that are traded in large quantities. Grains are not processed foods such as rice, wheat, pulses, sorghum, and all kinds of beans. Whole grains are considered unprocessed, and they are readily available and relatively inexpensive. Whole grains should normally be ground before use in cooking or baking. They are recommended for use primarily in regions that are familiar with the processing and preparation of this type of goods.

> Whole grains and legumes are cleaned, polished but also crushed, or heated. Grains have a long shelf life, if under cool conditions and low humidity storage. Therefore, the manufacture and trading of grain products is a simple and profitable company, which has greatly increased. Some whole grains are corn, sorghum and wheat and some legumes are dried beans and lentils. Large kernels of white maize and yellow maize in most parts of the world because of their size, low price and usedwide acceptance. Whole corn is used widely in emergency programs, both aid agencies and the governments of recipient countries. Untreated grain sorghum is used as a staple food in parts of Asia and Africa. It has limited use because they can present problems of digestibility, when the processing is not done, as required. Wheat is widely recognized, but requires more processing compared to other whole grains, which are converted into food. It can be either soft orhard in texture and white or red in color, and they are making different types of processed products such as bread, semolina or pasta. Rice is the grain product in addition to wheat, which is widely recognized and in most regions. Processing of rice grains is the easiest and requires less equipment and maintenance is easier.

All or most of the grains are identical except for a significant scale available, and domestic use, they are used in all types of food aidPrograms.
