six dominant cereal crops, globally. Cereals are part of the grass family and produce

, edible grains suitable for either human or livestock consumption. Cereal crops are also
used in the production of paper, adhesives, and food thickeners.

Which of the following are true
1. the grass family can be found everywhere that plants grow.
2. Fully ripened seeds are relatively small with extremely low water content, and can be
easily handled, stored, and transported.
3. Cereal grains provide more nutritional energy than any other type of crop. Correct
Answer All are true

Cereal Crops - Wheat Correct Answer Wheat has long been the dominant crop in
Canadian agriculture, and is exported worldwide. It is cultivated primarily for human
consumption. Wheat is ground into flour, which is a key ingredient in many food
products. Wheat is also used for livestock feed, in the production of alcohol, and for its
extracted gluten.

Cereal Crops - Barley Correct Answer Barley is hardy and easily grown; flourishes in a
variety of soils and climates; and is tolerant of frost, drought, and high salinity in soil.
The grain is relatively easy to handle, store, and transport. Moreover, it is exceptionally
nutritional as it is both high in fibre and low in cholesterol. It may be used in the
production of flatbreads, baby foods, gluten-free products, soups, and as a rice
imitation. Barley malt may be used in food malts, syrups, candy and other flavourings. In
addition, it is used as animal feed, and in the production of beer.

Cereal Crops - Oats Correct Answer Oats grow well in conditions that would be too cool
and wet for other cereal grains and are typically consumed as oatmeal (rolled oats), oat
starch, and in cookies. Oats and oat bran are popular health food products since they
help to lower cholesterol. They also make an excellent feed for livestock as they have
high levels of protein and essential minerals. They may also be used in the cosmetic,
paper, and brewing industries, as well as in the production of plastics, pesticides, and
preservatives.

Cereal Crops - Rye Correct Answer Rye is one of the world's major cereal crops, out of
which only it and wheat are capable of producing a leavened flour product. Rye creates
dark, heavy bread and is also used in the production of alcohol—specifically rye whisky.
However, in North America, most rye is grown for animal feed.

Compared to the other cereal crops, rye is the most tolerant of varied climatic and soil
conditions. Normally, it is grown as a winter crop. This means it is planted in the fall as a
cover crop, providing protection against spring wind erosion and a head start on other
spring-planted crops and weeds. As rye is generally planted in autumn, its harvest date
is also earlier—usually in late July or early August.

Cereal Crops - Triticale Correct Answer Triticale is a rye-wheat hybrid that was
developed to combine the best qualities of both grains. It has the higher protein levels,
strength, and winter hardiness of rye, as well as the higher quality gluten and baking
