Abstract

Food, seed, and industrial (FSI) uses of feed grains (corn, sorghum, barley, and oats) comprise a large and growing source of disappearance of these grains. This study provides a breakout of the FSI uses by the major grain consuming industries and an analysis of the potential for growth in use. Strong growth is occurring in corn wet milling and fuel alcohol production. Declines have been seen in certain products like cornmeal. FSI uses appear to be growing in corn and barley, declining in oats, and holding steady in sorghum. An appendix on processing techniques for feed grains is included.
