What Are Grains?

Grains are small, hard, dry seeds. Corn, rice and wheat account for most of the world's grain harvest. Almost half of the world's grains are produced in three countries; U.S., China, and India. Grains are divided into two main categories; Whole grain and Refined grains. Whole grains contain the entire grain kernel. Refined grains have been modified from the natural composition.
