Cereal Crops

Cereal Crops

Cereal Crops are all members of the grass family. Examples include rice, wheat, maize and sorghum. They are grown for their seeds (grains) which are high in carbohydrates and protein. The water content of the grains is low compared to other vegetables. This lecture focus to present on Cereal Crops. Other benefits of cereals are: easy to store because the low water content helps prevent mould growth and easy to transport because there is not a lot of wet bulk.
