DIFFERENT TYPE OF GRAINS

Wheat - a grass widely cultivated for its seed, a cereal grain


that is a worldwide staple food. The many species of wheat
together make up the genus Triticum; the most widely grown is
common wheat. a cereal grain that yields a fine white flour
used chiefly in breads, baked goods (such as cakes and
crackers), and pastas (such as macaroni or spaghetti),
and is important in animal feeds.

Rice - the seed of the grass species Oryza sativa or less


commonly Oryza glaberrima. The name wild rice is
usually used for species of the genera Zizania and
Porteresia, both wild and domesticated, although the
term may also be used for primitive or uncultivated
varieties of Oryza. Rice (Oryza sativa is the most
important cereal crop in the developing world and is the
staple food of over half the world's population

Barley - a cereal grain with a chewy texture and mild,


nutty flavor. It's the seed of a type of grass that grows in
temperate climates throughout the world and one of the
first grains to have been farmed by ancient civilizations.

Oats - The oat, sometimes called the common oat, is a


species of cereal grain grown for its seed, which is
known by the same name. While oats are suitable for
human consumption as oatmeal and rolled oats, one of
the most common uses is as livestock feed.
Quinoa - is a flowering plant in the amaranth family. It
is a herbaceous annual plant grown as a crop primarily
for its edible seeds; the seeds are rich in protein,
dietary fiber, B vitamins, and dietary minerals in
amounts greater than in many grains. In foods, quinoa
is used to make flour, soups, and beer. Quinoa is
also used in foods to replace grains like wheat for
people who need to avoid gluten, like those with celiac
disease.

Rye - used for flour, rye bread, rye beer, and


crispbread. It can also be eaten whole, as either
boiled rye berries or rolled, similar to rolled oats. Rye
bread, including pumpernickel, is a widely eaten food
in Northern and Eastern Europe. Rye is also used to
make crispbread.Rye is a grass grown extensively as
a grain, a cover crop and a forage crop. It is a
member of the wheat tribe and is closely related to
both wheat and barley. Rye grain is used for flour,
bread, beer, crispbread, some whiskeys, some
vodkas, and animal fodder.

Millet - Millet is one of the oldest cultivated grains in


the world and has been grown throughout Africa and
Southeast Asia for thousands of years. Millet can be
used to make bread, beer, cereal, and other
dishes. Even today, millet is a staple food around the
world.
