MAIZE

Maize is a type of flowering plant from the family Cereals. It is an important crop that is used for grain, silage and green fodder.

Over 270 million tons of corn grain are produced in the United States. 67% of the world production falls on U.S., China, Brazil and Mexico. Corn is planted in irrigated areas because it is hydrophilic and thermophilic culture. In the food industry we produce from corn starch, dextrin, liquid and medical glucose. Corn oil is margarine. It is a raw material for the production of alcohol, paper, fibers and various drugs. There is no other crop plant in the country, from which there are produced so many products.
